ABOUT
This moving and timely book explores the way the First World War has been thought about and commemorated, and how it has affected its own, and later, generations.
Harry Patch was born in 1898 and was conscripted in 1916. He served with a Lewis gun team at the Battle of Passchendaele and in September 1917 was wounded by a shell that killed three of his comrades. After the war, Patch returned to Somerset to work as a plumber, a job he continued to do until his retirement.
