About the Author

John Hutton is the Member of Parliament for Barrow and Furness, and he is a former Secretary of State for Defence.

His special interest in the Great War, which was inspired by the men he met in his constituency who served in the conflict, led to his first book with Pen and Sword "Kitchener's Men: The King's Own Royal Lancasters on the Western Front 1915-1918".

Reviews
