Soft cover. Condition: Near Fine. With a Machine Gun to Cambrai ISBN: 9780304352586 Author: George Coppard Publisher: Cassell Military Format: Paperback Edition: 2003 reprint of the original 1999 edition Condition: Very Good This powerful First World War memoir is one of the few written by a private soldier rather than an officer, offering a rare and uncompromising view of trench warfare from the lowest rank in the British Army. George Coppard enlisted underage in 1914 and served with the Machine Gun Corps on the Western Front, fighting at Loos, the Somme, Arras, and Cambrai, where he was badly wounded and awarded the Military Medal for bravery. Based on diaries kept illegally during active service, With a Machine Gun to Cambrai presents a stark, vivid account of daily life in the trenches, the brutal realities of machine?gun warfare, and the physical and psychological toll of modern industrial war. Coppard's direct, unsentimental style makes this memoir an enduring and highly regarded personal testimony of the Great War. This copy is the 2003 reprint of the original 1999 Cassell Military edition, containing the same text and illustrations as the first issue. Condition Note: This copy is very good condition. Clean, bright, and tightly bound, with no inscriptions, markings, or creases. Appears unread or very lightly handled, with only the faintest signs of shelf wear. Seller Inventory # A5-031
