Glum Heroes by Peter Hodgkinson

[Dust Jacket Collector]

The above book, published only last year by Helion at £25, is currently being offered by Naval & Military Press for £9.99. It's subtitled 'Resilience and Coping in the British Army on the Western Front'. It looks like something I'd be interested in but has anyone else read it? I'm  always a little suspicious when books are remaindered so quickly suggesting they may not have been up to much in the first place.

I bought it at the Forum conference earlier this year because it looked interesting on skimming through it but I have yet to read it.

I must admit that I also bought it as it looked interesting. I started to read it and found it heavy going, put it down and must admit not in a rush to pick it up again.

Thanks both. I've ordered it anyway as it was quite cheap. As a collector, even if I don't read the whole thing, the bibliographies can be useful.

I, too, received the notification from N&M and thought it looked interesting.

 

But not quite interesting enough.
