Peter Barham examines the psychiatric casualties of the First World War, shifting the historical lens away from the well-documented experiences of officers toward the neglected narratives of common soldiers. By analyzing clinical records and personal accounts, the work exposes the systemic failures of the British medical establishment in addressing the trauma of the rank-and-file.
