All I See Is Mud

De: Andrew Dunkley

Narrado por: Andrew Dunkley

All I See is Mud is the story of Stan Dunkley, a soldier in World War I and the grandfather of author Andrew Dunkley. Originally presented on ABC Radio in Australia, this is a deeply intimate re-telling of an ordinary soldier and the terrible conditions he endured in the trenches along the front lines of the battlefield. For almost three years, Stan Dunkley fought, and survived, and here his story is preserved as a reminder of the sacrifices made during the darkest times in human history.

amazing story

it was strong and intense and was a delight to listen to. I highly recommend this audiobook

Great insight into WW 1

What made the experience of listening to All I See is Mud the most enjoyable?

This book is narrated beautifully by the grandson of the main character. A great insight into the total innocence of these young men who were thrust into this bloody and brutal war, yet seemingly they kept their innocence and humour.

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

The final ulogy about the main characters life after the war, what were men made of in those days? Truely a different time full of great men such as Stan Dunkley.

A Must

The day to day accounts from the soldiers view.
