    Paperback. Condición: Very Good. A BBC documentary series, to be shown in autumn 2001, aims to recreate everyday life for soldiers in World War I. A group of volunteers has been recruited from the streets of Hull, exactly as the "Hull Pals" - the 10th battalion of the East Yorks Regiment - were recruited 85 years ago. They face life in a specially reconstructed trench in northern France under as many privations as can realistically be recreated according to the testimony of surviving World War I veterans and the official Regimental War Diary. The series has the official stamp of the Army, the Imperial War Museum and the British Legion. This companion book, based on extensive interviews with veterans as well as new research, vividly reconstructs the reality of war: what it felt like to see the front line for the first time, how the trenches themselves were constructed, how soldiers passed their leisure hours, where they slept, and what they ate. It takes a profound approach to the history of the Great War bringing it home in unimaginable horror by recreating in extraordinary detail the everyday realities of trench life. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged.…

    Cloth. Condición: Mint. Estado de la sobrecubierta: Mint. First Edition. The TV series The Trench, in which a group of early 21st century volunteers spent time living in as exact a reconstruction of the conditions of a First World War front-line trench as possible, attracted much criticism. Critics were quick to point out that such an essentially defining condition as fear of death and terrible injury was bound to be absent. The series was condemned by some as tasteless playacting. The book taken from the series faces these accusations and makes a strong argument for the case that the "playacting" does reveal historical realities that other types of research can't. Early in the book, Richard Van Emden confesses how puzzled he was by a First World War photo of British soldiers, in full view of heavily armed Germans, jog-walking back to their own lines. Why were they not running as fast as they could? Dress a modern day volunteer in the full battle order of a Great War soldier and the answer becomes immediately clear. However strong one's desire to run, the equipment was simply too heavy and cumbersome to allow more than a jog. This is the kind of telling detail that reconstruction can illustrate more effectively than any written record and there are other examples in Van Emden's book. However, the book is much more than the story of the making of the TV series. It provides a wide-ranging picture of life in the First World War trenches for the ordinary soldier. The routine tasks that occupied the men in the long stretches when they were not required to go over the top or fight the enemy. How they combated the mud, rats and lice that conspired to make their lives a misery even when they were not in immediate danger. How they ate and how they slept--poorly, in both cases. How they dealt with gas attacks and shelling of their trenches. The most extraordinary voices in this book are not those of Van Emden and his crew or the 2001 volunteers who manned the TV trenches.
