Furze: Sweethearts and Swan Songs

by B.D. Wilberforce

Furze Sweethearts and Swan Songs is based upon the hand-written diary Keith Furze kept during World War One. It covers a six-month period during the war and is the poignant story of a young Officer facing the catastrophic events on the Western Front, the tragic deaths of friends, fellow Officers, and soldiers. What makes this narrative distinctive, is the personal insight into those experiences and the pure emotions of this young British Officer. The juxtaposition is the sweetness and innocence of his feelings for his first love. It is those feelings and his personal beliefs which sustain his fortitude to inspire courage. This deeply emotional chronicle will touch every reader and remain an enduring legacy.
