Produktinformationen zu „In the Trenches 1914 - 1918 (ePub)“
This book are the memoirs of Frank S. Iriam, Sgt. sniper, scout and, observer attached to the First Canadian Division which was attached to the Canadian Overseas Expeditionary Force. These writing are of significant Historical Value as well as a very vivid description of most of the major battles of the Great War. There are no holds barred descriptions of the good and bad qualities of the various commanders he served under throughout the war as well as a good description of a scouts duties in trench warfare. It is a very mild description of a very violent and dangerous job where sudden death was every where. These men dealt out sudden death to every enemy combatant that was bearing arms and came into their view. They directed artillery fire onto any enemy target they could pinpoint. Also they crawled around no mans land day and night evaluating the enemy defenses in the sunshine, rain or snow. Frank made the comment that this was no Sunday Picnic. Only a man of great dedication to his country with great physical and mental strength could have survived those three years, seven months of Hades. This book is void of profane language as a result of Franks religious beliefs and upbringing.
Autoren-Porträt von Glenn R. Iriam
Glenn R. Iriam was born in Kenora, Ontario, Canada spending a short period in school. While in school he had good grades excelling in math, physics and shop. Glenn was having a large number of bouts of migraine headaches putting him in bed for days at times. While watching out the school window one spring day and observing the arrival of the float plans in Kenora Bay once more, he decided to approach the major bush airline for a job. He landed the job and on a sunny day in May he went to work much to his Father’s disappointment. After three years with the airline work he took some time out one fall and spent the winter wandering the Lake of the Woods between Kenora and Sioux Narrows. Once again work interfered with the fun times and he hired on with the city Hydro and Telephone Company where he worked as a lineman for 24 years. Physical problems prompted him to take an inside job at this point and he retired in 1994. Now Linda his wife and companion for 50 years live in a comfortable apartment in Kenora enjoying visits from their three children or visiting them. Linda loves to fish both summer and winter and that is a blessing.
