It has such a fabulous wealth of detail for the fan of London Territorials in the first days of war.
As JT has mentioned, the author gains a commission and then later transfers to the RFC. The book develops from its observations and commentary of the start and towards the end there are more reflections on the war in which the author is very honest about his thoughts and fears. A fascinating account of one man's varied war career from 1914 to 1918.
