Hardback. Zustand: Good. 'Ella darling, There are things I have concealed from you up till now that I think you ought to know; things that have turned me from a different person from the Ronald you know.' So, in April 1918, Ronald Skirth, a non-commissioned officer in the Royal Artillery, wrote to his sweetheart, back in England. A year before, Skirth, then just nineteen years old, had been sent to fight on the Western Front. This is his story, the story of a young man who went to war a devoted servant of King and country and returned utterly convinced that war, all war, was wrong and who acted upon his convictions, making a pact with God that he would not kill.

Cloth. Zustand: Very Good. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: Very Good. First Edition. Hardback. First Edition. The Reluctant Tommy. In the First World War, the author was an ordinary tommy. His experiences were like those of many others: fighting in the trenches under constant bombardment, suffering under a cowardly commanding officer, enduring shell shock and finally, somehow, surviving. But Skirth's store is more extraordinary that than. For on the Flanders battlefield he had a moment of epiphany when he came across the dead body of a teenaged German soldier. The boy was just like him. His corpse was bizarrely untouched, and in his had was a photo of his girlfriend, who look just like Skith's own sweetheart, Ella. Afterwards Skirth resolved that he would never again help to take a human life. He altered the trajectory of guns so that they fired harmlessly, and embarked ion other small acts of sabotage at huge risk to his own life. Under immense pressure from the authorities he suffered nbreakdowns and attacks of amnesia, but somehow Skirth maintained his campaign of active pacifism, lived out the war, and returned to marry Ella. Making use of the author's letters and postcards to Ella, his contemporary journals and the memoir he wrote in his retirement fifty years later.
