Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The classic memoir by an infantryman in the British army during the Second World War, “a book to bring a shiver to the most grizzled veteran (The Sunday Times). In 1944, having distinguished itself in the North Africa campaign, Rifleman Bowlby’s battalion of Greenjackets was sent to Italy. But instead of being used in the specialized role for which it had been trained, most of the battalion’s vehicles were taken away on arrival, and the riflemen were told that they were to be used as ordinary infantry. Stripped of its hard core of regulars, the battalion suffered one disastrous defeat after another until its hard-won reputation fell in tatters. This is a memoir that captures “quite extraordinary realism in this worm’s eye view . . . the sweating, slogging, frightened infantryman in conditions of extreme stress and horror” (The Sunday Times).

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Recollections of War Times: Reminiscences of Men and Events in Washington, 1860-1865 The war - its policies, incidents, and men - its struggles, sufferings, and losses - its horrors, adventures, and triumphs - has been written up, dwelt upon, discussed, and talked over, in public and private, till he is a brave or a reckless man who ventures now to challenge public attention to anything further he may have to offer on that topic. Lincoln and his advisers have been written of. The great commanders have been glorified in type; several have written their own memoirs, while every corps, division, and many brigades and regiments, have furnished historians, and many of very considerable merit. After all, these in a way were but the gigantic mechanics of the war. Back of all the armies, back of the great Secretaries, back of the President, - of all, - was the Congress, where really the war had first to be fought. The President and all his embattled hosts were but the executive - working out - executing the mandates of this seemingly silent, invisible, but all-creative and compelling power. Of this, save incidentally and cursorily, nobody has spoken or written, except Hon. E. G. Spaulding, of the New York delegation in the House.
