The War the Infantry Knew 1914-1919 is a remarkably coherent narrative, in diary form, of an infantry battalion's experience on the Western Front. A moving, truthful historical record, it deserves to be added to the select list of outstanding accounts of the First World War.
Captain J. C. Dunn, Medical Officer the 2nd Battalion His Majesty's 23rd Foot, The Royal Welsh Fusiliers. A courageous soldier and an impressive man, he was mentioned by both Robert Graves and Siegfried Sassoon in their famous books with respect and admiration. He died in 1955.
