About This Item
Reviews
Though tragic in its details, this book tells how boys as young as 12 years were able to enlist and fight (and die) in World War 1. No Birth Certificates were necessary for the first 2 years, and even many letters written subsequently by parents to the authorities were to no avail. Many boys were heroes and won medals for bravery and also made officers as early as 16! The author has researched thoroughly the experiences of many individual boys and also groups as a whole and the book is written in such a way as to be moving and informative.
