Between The Lines

Between the Lines

by Boyd Cable

This book, written by Boyd Cable, a British soldier during World War I, offers a firsthand account of the horrors and realities of trench warfare on the Western Front. Cable, writing within earshot of German artillery, provides intimate details of the daily struggles, the anxieties, and the grim realities faced by soldiers in the trenches. He delves into the human cost of war, capturing the psychological and physical toll it takes on those caught in the conflict. 'Between the Lines' sheds light on the human side of war, offering a stark contrast to the sanitized official war communiqués.
