[b]Review by Roger Barnes[/b] The style of the book is crisp, lucid and at times, almost conversational. It should appeal to any non-specialist reader who is generally interested in the classical world and provides an excellent introduction to a man who, after Alcibiades, is probably the most intriguing and elusive citizen of ancient Athens.

The letters are in part translated because sometimes she wrote in a mix of French and English, and I found that fascinating too. When a significant event took place the authors mention it in a paragraph or two after the letter. It offers a better perspective on what happened, but also shows how much work was put into researching the letters. The book is really good and I recommend it. It is a very good primary source for WWI. 5/5 stars Read the full review [link=https://www.coffeeandbooks.co.uk/lady-under-fire-on-the-western-front-by-andrew-and-nicola-hallam/]here[/link]

This book offers a wonderful insight into both the character of Douglas Haig, and into the lost world that is the life of a well-to-do cavalry officer during the last decade of the nineteen century, and as such I recommend it.
