Walter Stephen takes an uninhibited look at the misery and toil of WWI through a collection of 12 diverse stories. Providing a Scottish perspective, he analyses tales from home and abroad with scepticism, delving deeper to unveil the unencumbered truth. Recalling Siegfried Sassoon's words, he reveals the failures of those in command as the Great War became known as 'a dirty swindle'.
