A Sapper with the Eight Army tells the story of one of the greatest engineering feats of the war…of how the man who became known as the “water bloke” to the entire British Army in Africa delivered precious drinking water from the Nile over the shell-ridden wastes of the desert. An engrossing sidelight on the brilliant campaign that cleared the way for the invasion of Europe.
“But When It Comes To Slaughter
You’ll Do Your Work On Water”
Rudyard Kipling
