WITH ONLY THE SKY AS A BLANKET
The War Diary of Ernest Danforth
Compiled by Carol Thomas
In 1915, Ernest Danforth, a Yorkshire miner, heads off to 'do his bit' for the country in one of Lord Kitchener's Pals Battalions. Swapping the darkness of the mines for the sun-drenched sand of Egypt, and then the mud of the Somme, he and his fellow Pals find themselves in a dour struggle for survival. We take a journey on an emotional roller coaster as we follow Ern and his Battalion from his enlistment to the end of the War.
