On a more serious note thank you for linking this. I've been listening to Dan Carlins rendition of WWI and this seems like a much less rambling piece to read in companion.

The best reading I've done on WWI is a fictionalization.

Follett goes to great pains to justify his choices. From the non-fiction I've read, he takes few liberties with actual history. I recommend it wholeheartedly.

Fuck everything about being a grunt in WWI
