The renowned writer served as a private in the Irish Guards & was wounded at Passchendaele. Of his powerful classic novel of the activities of a bombing squad on the Western Front, Cyril Falls said he "seems to have set himself out to out-German the Germans," acknowledges him as an "able writer with a savage & bitter twist" but goes on to say that the book is "larded with an obscenity that grows wearisome." Orig. brown cloth, VG. See illustration on our website.
