William Watson was a young Oxford post-graduate at the outbreak of the First World War in 1914. Along with several friends from Oxford, he enlisted in the army expecting the war to last six weeks. Watson began his service in the Great War as a motorcycle despatch rider and he saw active service during the key battles of 1914 and early 1915. Watson was then commissioned and became a tank commander, and he saw active service at Cambrai in 1917. This evocative memoir describes his experiences during the Great War.
