Finally finished "The Middle Part of Fortune".

Salty soldiers tale of life in the trenches.

Much of the dialogue is written in "Cockney", so as an American I found it a little difficult to follow in spots. It's kind of like "Trainspotting" in this regard.

Very descriptive look at British Army life during WWI, particularly the complex relationships between enlisted, NCO's, and officers.
