Today's Observer has a long article with extracts from the correspondence between the Editor of the Observer during WW1 and his son, Ged, who was serving with the 7th Battalion of the South Lancashire Regiment. (Ties in with a new book called 'We Hope to Get Word Tomorrow')

Thanks for posting this review Eirian.

I saw this book in Pen & Swords newsletter although there was not a lot of information about it. I just read the review and the letters contained within. Certainly the father was a victorian but it appears due to his position knew well what was going on in France. Looks like another book for the christmas list.

Some beautiful letters in that review.
