From the moment of its first appearance an established classic - John Wain in the Observer Robert Graves's superb autobiography tells the story of his life at public school and as a young officer during the First World War. It is a permanently valuable work of literary art, and indispensable for the historian either of the First World War or of modern English poetry...Apart, however, from its exceptional value as a war document, this book has also the interest of being one of the most candid self-portraits of a poet, warts and all, ever painted. The sketches of friends of Mr Graves, like T.E. Lawrence, are beautifully vivid. - The Times Literary Supplement One of the classic accounts of the Western Front...In it the veteran survivors recognized their own war - The Times The cover shows a detail from Travoys Arriving with Wounded at a Dressing-Station at Smol, Macedonia by Stanley Spencer in the Imperial War Museum
