Re: New Book by Terry Evans abt -Men of Cradley in the 1st W
I received my copy of the book two weeks ago and haven't been able to put it down, full of information and pictures. I have found several of my husbands Kirton family who served in the war plus extra information about their families, especially concerning marriages they made.
The extracts from the war diaries of regiments makes compelling if sad reading.
The best £12.80 I have spent this year.
