A Subaltern's Share In The War: Some Letters Of The Late George Weston Devenish is a collection of letters written by George Weston Devenish, a subaltern or junior officer in the British Army during World War I. The book was originally published in 1917, shortly after Devenish's death in battle. The letters provide a firsthand account of Devenish's experiences on the front lines of the war, including his observations of the conditions in the trenches, his interactions with fellow soldiers, and his thoughts on the conflict itself. Devenish's writing is often poignant and reflective, offering insights into the psychological toll of war on soldiers. The book also includes a brief biography of Devenish, written by his father, as well as a preface by the editor of the collection, who was a friend of Devenish's. Overall, A Subaltern's Share In The War is a valuable historical document that offers a unique perspective on World War I from the point of view of an ordinary soldier.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
