Just incredible

As a former US marine (2008) I’ve heard countless references to this book. I am so glad to have finally listened to it. It was enhanced by truly a deft reading. Fantastic.

A World War I Must Read

This was a very detailed and descriptive World War I account from the German perspective. This is a top World War I bio about what life on the Western Front for Germans was like and first hand account on combat and life in the trenches. A great work, but the narration was not the best in the world. That part could have been better.

Really good!

I believe the narrator could not have been better for this book. One of best of WW1.

great listen

good background noise for wargaming and if you have listened to it once you can pick up wherever you are I alternate between this and all quite on the Western front one problem and if is my hearing when the said shooting slits I thought it was S###ing slits but it is my hearing

Phenomenal book, objective in perspective (?)

Do not expect a futurist style work, nor an anti war work like ‘all quiet’. This is a strange middle ground. The narrator is excellent, though sometimes pronounces German or French without translation (though likely an error in the work and not him). Phenomenal book.
