The ordinary fighting man often paid the price for his generals' mistakes and this volume recreates the combat soldiers' world of forty years ago down to the last detail - their weapons, their food, how they coped, lived in hope and often died in agony - as early confidence turned to bitter disillusion following appalling strategic blunders and strained relations among the Allies.
