The Great Push

History

Military

MacGill enlisted in the London Irish Rifles at the outbreak of war, and was wounded at Loos in 1915 … he was still just 24 years old. The Red Horizon and The Great Push are evocative accounts of his war experiences, full of keenly observed details of trench life, the horrors of war and the speech of his fellow soldiers, as well as a highly developed humanity.  "In some places the enemy’s bullets search the main street by night and day; a journey from the rear to the trenches is made across the open, and the eternal German bullet never leaves off searching for our boys coming in to the firing line. You can rely on sandbagged safety in the villages, but on the way from there to the trenches you merely trust your luck; for the moment your life has gone out of your keeping."
