War Letters to a Wife

ebook
Includes the First World War Illustrations Pack - 73 battle plans and diagrams and 198 photos.
Lieutenant-Colonel Rowland Feilding began his military career as a front line soldier in World War I and a leader of men, preferring to volunteer for a dangerous duty rather than order a subordinate to do so in his place. With a narrative broken only by the months he spent recuperating from wounds, Feilding was blessed with an extraordinary luck: his survival was a mystery even to his comrades. Vivid yet unexaggerated in its depiction of life at the front, Feilding's letters to his wife, Edith Stapleton-Bretherton, are driven by his thoughts, emotions and experiences of the war, and of home. Written with the events still fresh in his mind—and often while still on the battlefield or in the trenches—, these letters form one of the most compelling accounts of the Western Front during the First World War. Compelling reading.-Print ed.
