The Soul of the War #293584

Gibbs reviews the true horror of man, the true horror of war. In this book he spends much time revealing the sacrifices, heartaches and unimaginable horrors that the French and the Belgians had to endure during the Great War.

He speaks of his time volunteering as a stretcher-bearer for an ambulance service and risks and dangers that he undertook to try and save as many young men as possible. His tales of the hospital wards and the wounded young men he saw is a perfect summary for why war should never be the answer.
