Description: First edition, limited issue, number 696 of 750 copies signed by the author and printed on handmade paper. Sassoon's semi-autobiographical novel depicts trench warfare from the spring of 1916 to the summer of 1917; it was recognized almost immediately as a classic of First World War fiction. "Like Tolstoy's War and Peace, which he was also reading while he wrote his own book, it is the combination of factual detail and direct personal experience vividly rendered that makes Infantry Officer a convincing and compelling picture of war. As he told Ottoline [Morrell], he wanted to give 'a really truthful inner-narrative'. He believed that this had not yet been achieved by an English writer, apart from Blunden" (Wilson, p. 238). Keynes A33b. Jean Moorcroft Wilson, Siegfried Sassoon: The Journey from the Trenches, 2003. Octavo. Original blue buckram, spine lettered in gilt, top edge gilt, gatherings largely unopened. Spine sunned and gently leaning, trivial rubbing to lower edges, contents clean. An excellent copy.
