lost diary of the Great War

de bene esse: literally, of well-being, morally acceptable but subject to future validation or exception

Diary of the damned: Never seen before, a lost diary of the Great War so brutally vivid you'll feel YOU are there in the trenches

Harry Drinkwater, right, signed up to a 'Pals Battalion' in 1914 and was sent to the front line. His diary extracts tell of his brutal introduction to life in the trenches. On the front lines in France he would work, eat and sleep waist-deep in mud, crouch on the frozen lip of shell craters hiding from Germans and carry comrades back to be buried.
