Joris Posted December 2, 2005 Share Posted December 2, 2005 Written by Richard Holmes. I'm reading this book and if you ever wanted to know something about the brits at WWI this is your book. Very informative, nicely written and with some laughs added to it makes this book very easy to read. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PeterMacD Posted September 18, 2007 Share Posted September 18, 2007 Tommy is great for the detail - Richard Holmes must be one of the luckiest men alive to be able to write about his hobby and get time off from work to do it! :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony B Posted September 18, 2007 Share Posted September 18, 2007 Deserves to be read. It is a fascinating fair look at the British Army of the Great War. Wriiten by an academic serving soldier, it is excellent. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PeterMacD Posted September 20, 2007 Share Posted September 20, 2007 He has retired now but we all do that at some time :-( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony B Posted September 20, 2007 Share Posted September 20, 2007 Oh Woopee, if he's retired that could mean more books, and possibly telly programmes. The man not only knows his stuff but has the priceless gift of being able to put it over. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
