Dosyu Draganov, the author of these personal and authentic stories about World War I, introduces readers to First Sofia Infantry Regiment, which was part of the so-called Iron (Shopska) Division. Fresh from military school, Draganov was thrown straight into battle at the Dobrudzha Front, with a platoon in his charge. In this fascinating book, episodes of heroism and patriotism alternate with mundane hardships and soldiers' jokes. It's as if the stories are told by a close relative or friend. You won't be able to put the book down until you finish it. You will share in the author's excitement about getting to the battlefront and joining an already experienced and victorious military force, going through the baptism of fire, being wounded, recovering and getting back to battle, this time in the south.
