A wonderful insight into life on the front as a soldier in the Great War
Soldier magazine
A remarkable set of letters from a man who had much to live for to a wife he loved greatly. This is easily one of the best First World War books I have read, and paints a poignant picture of a vanished age.
Richard Holmes
Battlefield memoir and love story rolled into one, For Love and Courage cannot fail to leave a lasting impression.
BBC History
A touching record of one man's experience of war.
Guardian
What makes For Love and Courage compelling are the romantic letters to his wife
The Times
Wonderful: brave, funny, deeply loving, full of human detail of life at the Front and of the family life from which he was separated
Daily Mail
