Remembrance Day. November 11th.

A fitting day for this book to arrive. A purchase from World of Books who sell used books.
This book is one which has already been read.
The author Vera Brittain lost her fiancé Roland Leighton, her younger brother Edward and their two close friends Victor Richardson and Geoffrey Thurlow- all of whom were killed the First World War.
Here is a quote from her:
“Nothing in the papers, not the most vivid and heart-rending descriptions, have made me realise war like your letters”. Written on 17th April 1915.
