Notes:

This is the story of one man who served throughout the Great War, at the very front of the Fronts in the most brutal battles in history, and achieved that most astonishing feat of all - he survived. His name was George Matthew Richardson. He won the Military Medal and Bar and was nominated for the Distinguished Conduct Medal, yet was completely forgotten by his country, his clan, his hometown and - almost - his own family. With a foreword by Sting, this Plain Man's Guide to the Great War is a must for Geordies everywhere and for anyone who has been touched by the First World War.
