Description

A fascinating biographical narrative of the lives and deaths of nearly two hundred men from many different walks of life and social circumstance, all linked by their attendance at St Olave's Grammar School, at that time in Bermondsey, now in Orpington, with a long history dating back to Elizabethan London of 1562. Tales are interwoven within a chronological survey of the Great War campaign, with specialist chapters from aerial, infantry and naval combat to medical support, artillery, engineering, machine gunnery and tank technologies. Individual and personal details abound, helping the reader to get to know many of the 'warriors', with several indexes of interest for genealogical, local history and military research. Images of all the fallen are included with the often passionate narrative punctuated with poetry, letters home, school masters observations and pertinent quotes that add subtlety to the story.
