One of the crucial factors that kept Tommy going on the Western Front was his ability to see what was comic in the horror, deprivation & discomfort of trench warfare
- an attitude which blossomed further in the rest areas behind the lines. The nature of the comedy ranged from gentle irony to a rougher hilarity that produced full-on belly laughs.

For almost forty years the events of ' Bloody Sunday' on January 30 1972, have been the subject of intense claim & counter-claim. In 1998 Tony Blair attempted to settle the controversy by commissioning a fresh inquiry. The longest, most thorough & costly inquiry in legal history, the details of the Saville Inquiry are hardly known. Douglas Murray followed the Inquiry daily, almost from the beginning, hoping to find a story. Instead, he found hundreds. In this book he tells these stories
- the stories of the individuals involved in the terrible events of that defining day. This book is not only about a terrible event & it is not just about a process of justice. It is about the efforts of a group of people to arrive at truth & a country's effort
- three decades on
- at a painful & perhaps incomplete reconciliation.

This powerful new account argues that our view has been obscured by this myth of tragedy, & that we need to see the Somme as contemporaries saw it: as a necessary stage in an intensive & brutal war of attrition. ...
