Over the Top

Arthur Guy Empey, an American who took up arms with the British Army after the tragic sinking of the Lusitania, shares his harrowing journey through the trenches of France. His vivid account of wartime experiences—complete with the trials of injury and recovery—captivated audiences when it was first published in 1917, becoming a rallying cry for enlistment as America entered the Great War. If youre curious about the grim realities of trench warfare during WWI and want to gain a unique perspective from the ground level, Empeys narrative offers a raw and authentic view. Additionally, this edition features Empeys beloved Tommys Dictionary of the Trenches, which humorously unpacks the slang of British soldiers, making the experience even more relatable.
