Admiral of the Fleet Earl Beatty - The Last Naval Hero

British Widows of the First World War

British Widows of the First World War

Michael Lucas

Using official and unofficial sources, diaries, letters, and British and German wartime records, In The Journeys End Battalion, Michael Lucas gives a vivid account of its history and describes the individuals who served in it and the operations they took part in. He identifies the inspiration for R.C. Sherriff's play, Journeys End and considers how Sherriff delved into his experiences and those of his fellow soldiers in order to create his drama. So not only does the book shed new light on the wartime career of R.C. Sherriff, but it is a valuable record of the operation of a British battalion on the Western Front during the Great War.
