Er erlebt hautnah die viele Schrecken des modernen Krieges: die Tapferkeit und die armseligen Gräben auf die Infanterie Männer, die veralteten Taktiken und die reiche Lebensstil der Offiziere.

Plus: Sehr gute Beschreibungen. Eine auktoriale Erzählweise, die nicht nervt. Geschichtlicher Hintergrund wird erklärt.
Minus: viel Telling, wenig Showing. Kaum Einblicke ins Innenleben der Figuren. Geschichtlicher Hintergrund kommt mit dem Holzhammer.
