THE 1st BATTALION DORSETSHIRE REGIMENT IN FRANCE AND BELGIUM August 1914 to June 1915 by Anon
The 1st Battalion of the Dorsetshire Regiment was in Belfast on the outbreak of the Great War in August 1914 and was rushed to France, landing at Le Havre as part of the BEF on 14th August. It took part in the war's opening battles at Mons and Le Cateau, joined the great retreat to the Marne, and then advanced to the Aisne. By the turn of the year the battalion was in the Ypres salient, fighting at Messines and Hill 60. This regimental account of the Great War's opening months is well illustrated with maps. Roll of Officers, Honours and Awards, and summary of battle casualties complete this history.
The writer has chosen to stay anonymous because the poems reflect a universal journey. The author lays no claim to the thoughts as they are part of the collective unconsciousness that binds living things together. The compilation portrays how poetry can be a person's best friend, philosopher, and guide throughout his/her life.
