Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good. 1st Edition. First published by HMSO as a paperback in 1969. This edition has been substantially revised and enlarged and includes an epilogue of the author's account of a return to the battlefields sixty years later.George Coppard describes himself as a 'common private of the uneducated classes. He went to France as a very young volunteer and served as a machine gunner until 1917 when he was badly wounded. This is a vivid account of his experiences on the Western Front and is a social document of considerable importance.He is a sympathetic and sensitive observer and his description of the battlefield after the first day of the Somme has real emotional intensity. What emerges most strikingly is the helplessness of the private soldier in the face of a military system which demanded of him total and unquestioning obedience to the orders of his superiors.Well illustrated with photos and line drawings. 208pp inc letters received by the author. 22cm x 14cm Very Good in Very Good pictorial dustwrapper.
