TV legal chap. First World War MA (Wolverhampton MAfia) and PhD candidate. Studying the performance of 6 BEF divisions on the Western Front 1917-1918. It’ll be mostly that on here, just so you know. Plus some general nonsense. And a bit of the Chels too.

Goodness, lots of new followers. I’d best do one of those intro posts.
Me - fifty something chap working in kids TV. That’s the day job. But after some soul-searching a few years back I decided to take my interest in the First World War a bit further. This is an understatement, as you’ll see. 1/x

My research into the effects of malnutrition on combat effectiveness makes me think we need to re-evaluate the Second Battle of the Piave. By “we” I mean me, and the seven other people who are vaguely interested in the 2BP.

I wrote this song on Saturday, recorded it yesterday and released it to you today in response to the state terror being visited on the city of Minneapolis. It’s dedicated to the people of Minneapolis, our innocent immigrant neighbors and in memory of Alex Pretti and Renee Good.

This will be great! There are so few books in English on the Italian front of the First World War, so this is a huge service to readers
