Daredevil of the Army - Experiences as a ''Buzzer'' and Despatch Rider

by Austin Patrick Corcoran

This book is a firsthand account of the experiences of a motorcycle dispatch rider in World War I. The author, A.P. Corcoran, was a young man who had already traveled the world before the war broke out. He joined the British Army as a dispatch rider and served throughout the war, from the trenches of France to the deserts of Mesopotamia. Corcoran's book is a vivid and exciting account of the challenges and dangers of being a dispatch rider. He writes about the long hours of riding in all kinds of weather, the constant threat of enemy fire, and the importance of getting messages through no matter what. Corcoran's book is also a valuable historical document, providing a unique perspective on the war from the front lines.
