Winston Churchill in the trenches in World War I - his adjutant's memoir

Another review of a very interesting book, this time about the great man of World War Two when he went, voluntarily, to wade through mud in the service of the rule of law in World War One... well, sort of!

See review №53 here:

Note the blue French helmet, which he adopted because he thought he looked stupid in a Glengarry (Scottish military cap), as shown in a picture in the review.

Enjoy!
