Description
The Glory of the Trenches is a war memoir by Coningsby Dawson, novelist and soldier of the Canadian Field Artillery. In 1914, Dawson went to Ottawa, and was offered a commission in the Canadian Field Artillery. In July 1916 he was selected, with twenty-four other officers, for immediate service in France. Lieutenant Coningsby Dawson joined the Canadian Expeditionary Force at the front in 1916, and continued in service until the end of World War I. He served in the Somme battlefield at Albert, at Thiepval, at Courcelette, and at the taking of the Regina trench. This book provides a remarkable insight in different aspects of war. It tells of the trench warfare and how it affected participants, but it also tells of the psychological consequences from the combat.
