In February 1916, Captain F. J. Roberts of the 12th Battalion, Sherwood Foresters produced the first edition of the trench newspaper The Wipers Times. Often produced in hazardous conditions, at one point only 700 yards from the front line, it acted as the voice of the average British soldier, relaying his experiences, grief, and anger during the entire conflict. At times irreverent, at times hysterical, its humor and satire provide an excellent insight into life in the trenches in the First World War.

Review:
The Wipers Times' extraordinary mix of jokes, sarcasm, black humour and sentimental poetry make it a unique record of the period.... It is Blackadder for real and an obvious forerunner of magazines like Private Eye. --Ian Hislop
About the Author:
