William Lamin's WW1 Leters home

Has anybody else been caught up reading William's letters to his family in WW1?

They are being published on
WW1: Experiences of an English Soldier
on the 90th anniversary of each letter and are cross referenced to the Regimental Diaries. They are absolutely fascinating (albeit sometimes very hard to read) and remind me of some of the letters I have seen written between my parents in WW2. I don't know why I was, and am still, surprised at the everyday content but I find myself checking daily to see if he has sent another letter. I do hope that they don't stop abruptly.

It's proved very popular from what I've heard, CT. A lot of people are hoping he makes it through.

Great way to bring history alive so to speak.
