Sniper Jackson, first published in 1919, is a first-hand account of trench fighting in Belgium and France in World War One. The book, although somewhat fictionalized, details the activities of a group of British soldiers facing the Germans across a deadly No Man's Land. One soldier, "Sniper Jackson", is a keen marksman and his role and importance in the skirmishes are well-described, a rarely described aspect of most books on World War One. The book also details the close-knit camaraderie among the soldiers, a factor which helped them survive the miserable conditions of the trenches, and the dangers they faced from artillery attacks and enemy advances.
