First Call: Guide Posts To Berlin is a vivid and gripping account of the author's experiences as a soldier in World War I. Written by Arthur Guy Empey, an American who volunteered to fight for the British Army, the book provides a first-hand perspective of the horrors of trench warfare and the bravery of the soldiers who fought in it. Empey's account begins with his decision to enlist and his training in England, before he is sent to the front lines in France. He describes the brutal conditions in the trenches, the constant threat of enemy fire, and the camaraderie among the soldiers. Empey also provides insight into the psychological toll of war, including the fear and trauma that soldiers experience. The book also covers Empey's experiences in the Battle of the Somme, one of the bloodiest battles in history, and his eventual capture by the Germans. He spends several months as a prisoner of war before escaping and making his way back to England. Throughout the book, Empey's writing style is engaging and accessible, making it easy for readers to connect with his experiences. He also includes photographs and illustrations to further bring his story to life. First Call: Guide Posts To Berlin is a powerful and important book that provides a unique perspective on World War I.
