The subject this month that was picked at my book club was world war one, i was struggling to find a book to read, and so was lent two books. This one by my mother and War Horse by my friend. I chose to read this one, and was honestly a bit dubious about reading it. I have always been more interested in ancient history than modern history and didnt think it would agree with me. However i couldn't put this book down
, the way it is written makes you feel like you are sat with Harry listening to him tell his stories, and for me it is unusual to read something about someone that didnt want to go to war. Also reading about his life and the things he had done before the war and after it...well what an interesting man and deffinately a character. I hope his story lives on for a long time to come.
