We know a great deal about Lawrence of Arabia, but what about the lot of the common soldier who fought on the Middle Eastern front?

Using personal accounts from the diaries and letters of British soldiers who served in the First World War, this book describes the experience of combat in Egypt and Palestine. It describes the life for the British Tommy in conditions vastly different from the Western Front, where heat, sand storms and insects proved just as deadly as the enemy.

David R. Woodward is Professor of Modern European History at Marshall University in the United States, and the author of Lloyd George and the Generals. He lives in West Virginia.
