- the eldest & the only survivor
- became an officer in the Royal Garrison Artillery & moved to the Western Front straight into the mud of Passchendaele For much of 1915 Stanley kept a diary unusual among contemporary accounts for its comprehensive coverage of their time in Norfolk
- training while waiting for an expected invasion
- & their voyage to Egypt with the horses It continues through their first few months in Egypt & their move to Gallipoli ending with the heroic but disastrous assault on Scimitar Hill on 21 August & its aftermath The brothers' letters home contrast with the diary's vivid vignettes in their often expansive descriptions of widely differing theatres of war Their writings are illustrated as far as possible with their own photographs & set in context for readers unfamiliar with the geographical or historical background to each campaign
