A fabulous mixture of researched and direct quotes from Great Uncle Harry's War Diaries. This is an excellent example of Family history research being brought to life. This is a Father's Day present I could not put it down. Bringing together detail and snippets of 'real life experiences' towards the end of the Raj, life in New Zealand and leading to the tragedy called Gallipoli, via Suez and Egypt. Death, humour and deprivation, survival, recovery and Joy. All leading to War ravaged France and the human meat grinder of the somme. "A soldier of the Great War" For 60% of these New Zealanders "Whose Graves Are Known Only to God"
