About Liam Foxx (View Profile)

I have always had a knack for writing stories I spent many years in the army and gained university qualifications on leaving. I have always loved history and stories with a twist to them, hence the way I write. Before serious illness overtook me I was a lecturer on the circuit and had many good times teaching young people.

A well researched story,gives graphic details of the horror of warfare&the attitude of the British General Staff who sent thousands of young men to their deaths.Also gives an insight to life in Britain in 1914.My only criticism is the use of the American word "gotten"To me it spoilt the part of the story it was in
