The main character is Jack, he is a honest and loyal person. This book is based on a true story Of a professional footballer in the trenches. It's 1914 and the World is at war. People like Rugby players, cricket players and more were signing up to go to war. But the only people that didn’t where the footballers so everyone said that they were to scared. Jack wanted to prove them wrong so he signed up along with a few of his friends. His training is over and now he is heading off to the trenches. He had to stay with rats, Dirty muddy clothes and he had seen deaths. His Friend inhaled some gas that the germans sent over and he passed away in his hands.
