A newly discovered account of life in the trenches that challenges our perception of how British troops viewed the First World War. Conditioned by Wilfred Owen's poetry and dulled by the notions of waste and futility, British readers have become used to the idea that this was a war without purpose fought by 'lions led by donkeys'.
