The story of a Greek soldier by D. G. Bridson
This is the story of a Greek infantryman's adventures in the war, from the fighting in the mountains of Albania to the Macedonian front against the German offensive.
His story is typical of all the Greeks and tells, against the changing background of the mountains, the story of the indomitable courage which fought for freedom to the end.
