Kitchener's New Army by Edgar Wallace

A new postscript tells the story of Kitcheners Army in action.
Edgar Wallace, the creator of King Kong and some 175 other novels, was also a journalist. He spent part of the war years producing the story of Kitchener’s Army, reproduced here. He lived variously in England, South Africa and Europe. As well as his novels, some 160 films, and various short stories and twenty-five plays, he was also Britian’s very first sports reporter, reporting on the Derby in 1923. He died in 1932, heavily in debt, despite a £50,000 per annum salary. Dying in Hollywood, he received a hero’s funeral in London and is buried in Buckinghamshire. Campbell McCutcheon has had a life-long interest in the Olympic-class vessels and naval shipping. He has written extensively on the subject along with some Military History and Bradshaw’s Railway titles for Amberley. He lives in Gloucestershire, but he was born within sight and sound of the water and has been interested in ships from a young age.
