"Ninety years ago my grandfather wrote a very personal account of his time on the Somme in the Great War. He called it 'The Experiences of a Very Unimportant Officer in France and Flanders during 1916 - 1917'. "Until now it has only been read by my close family. But now, as his grandson, I would like to share this amazing piece of personal history of life in the trenches. "I hope you will find it equally fascinating." Jaime Cameron Stewart | |
