Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book tells the story of the 7th Manchesters, a British Territorial unit, during their deployment in the Middle East and France during the First World War. The author, a Captain in the battalion, provides a vivid, first-hand account of their experiences, from the defense of the Suez Canal against Turkish attacks to the trenches of the Western Front. The book reveals the incredible resilience and adaptability of the British soldier, depicting not only the epic battles but also the daily struggles of desert life, the camaraderie amongst the troops, and the constant presence of death and danger. It also highlights the crucial role of the Territorial Army in the British war effort, demonstrating how ordinary men, drawn from civilian life, could become capable and dedicated soldiers. The author's personal perspective and honest reflections offer readers a powerful glimpse into the harsh realities of war and the profound impact it had on the lives of those who fought in it.
