This title details the experiences of war journalist William Beach Thomas. One of only five men chosen in 1915 to document the Great War from the Western Front, Thomas was in the terrifying and unique position of supplying the people of England with a glimpse of the Somme. Whilst working for the Daily Mail, sections of his reporting featured in the newspaper in 1916. However, those excerpts appearing here have for the most part been rewritten to fill in the gaps left by the war censors during the war.
