I havent read Fussell's book on the Second World War. Although I
note that Eksteins has a book on the subject which I may look out
for tomorrow. It must be ten years since I read the Fussell so I
am rusty on it. Perhaps I should dig it out and re-read it.
The key thing about the Great WAr is that the morale of the British
Army broke the Germans. The War POets were very incidental.
