About this listen

William Arthur Human was 22 years old and serving as a British soldier in India when war broke out in 1914. This is his story, in his own words, covering his first eight months on the Western Front and featuring the Battle of Neuve Chapelle. An extraordinarily vivid account that is heartfelt, captivating, and challenging in equal measure.

“Nowadays - when I think of it - it gives me a shiver down my back. I wonder how a man could live through it all and yet be sane”.

Written by William Arthur Human. Transcribed by his great-grandson Stephen Reynolds.
