Description

Woodbine Willie is the incredible bibliography of an unsung hero in World War One - Rev. Geoffrey Studdert Kennedy. The soldiers Chaplin on the infamously dangerous Western Front, Woodbine Willie volunteered his services as an Anglican Priest during the bloody battle. He cared for the wounded, ministered to the dying and rallied the down-hearted and spiritually bruised young men. He was even awarded a Military Cross for running into No Man's Land to help the wounded in the middle of a heavy battle. With countless stories to tell, this biography has collected the life of the courageous man through original interviews with people who knew and loved him. From his childhood and education, to the tranches, to helping war-torn Britain recover - this book offers more than a glimpse into a modern-day inspiration. About the Author Bob Holman, described by the Daily Telegraph as 'the good man of Glasgow', has made a mission of living alongside the disadvantaged of British society. An accomplished writer, who contributes regularly to the "Guardian", he is the author of several books, including "Keir Hardie" (Lion Books)
