The trilogy — comprising Memoirs of a Fox-Hunting Man, Memoirs of an Infantry Officer, and Sherston's Progress — chronicles Sherston's journey from an idyllic Edwardian childhood through the mud and carnage of the Western Front. Sassoon writes with a rare combination of lyrical beauty and unflinching honesty, capturing both the pastoral innocence of pre-war England and the profound moral disillusionment wrought by modern warfare. Though thinly veiled as fiction, the narrative draws directly from Sassoon's own extraordinary experiences, including his famous public protest against the continuation of the war, making it one of the most compelling and authentic accounts of the Great War ever written.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Secondhand Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48893802709211,"sku":"2026200009022-SECONDHAND","price":20.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/7646\/9701\/files\/24ae4960-10ab-465c-8d59-7b8542d7ec4d.png?v=1782040089","url":"https:\/\/bookgrocer.com\/products\/2026200009022-secondhand-the-complete-memoirs-of-george-sherston","provider":"Book Grocer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
