Über diesen Titel

Immerse yourself in the poignant letters of a Brisbane doctor stationed at the Western Front from 1914 to December 1915. He shares captivating anecdotes from World War I, including the unique challenges of de-lousing an entire regiment, the meticulous layout of the urine trenches, and gripping eyewitness accounts of the battles of Neuve Chapelle and Ypres. He also offers a contemporary perspective on the Gallipoli campaign, recounting the harrowing moments when enemy shells rained down on ambulances and the perilous nighttime retrievals of the wounded from the trenches. This era of remarkable medical advancements is brought to life through fascinating tales of the first mass Tetanus inoculations and the innovative experiments behind vermi-jelly, alongside the darker narratives surrounding the introduction of chlorine gas. This compelling story of an Australian doctor navigating the Great War is narrated by another Australian doctor, complete with authentic Aussie slang delivered in a true-blue accent! (Summary by Beth Thomas)
