By October 1916, Phillip Maddison is hardened by life in the trenches. He prays that his injured leg will not prevent a return to the Front - the only way he can assuage his grief for Lily; killed by a Zeppelin. Back in France, he is at one with the men. Then comes the desolation of Passchendaele.

Henry Williamson (1895-1977) was a prolific writer best-known for Tarka the Otter, which won the Hawthornden Prize in 1927. He wrote much of else of quality including The Wet Flanders Plain, The Flax of Dream tetralogy and the fifteen-volume A Chronicle of Ancient Sunlight, all of which are being reissued in Faber Finds.His politics were unfortunate, naively and misguidedly right-wing. In truth, he was a Romantic. The critic George Painter famously said of him, 'He stands at the end of the line of Blake, Shelley and Jefferies: he is last classic and the last romantic'.
