Goodbye To All That
Condition remarks:
Condition: Good to fair. Paperback. Page Condition: Good - possible tanning. Markings: possible previous owner inscription.
One of the most celebrated autobiographies of the twentieth century, Goodbye to All That stands as a searing and darkly vivid account of Robert Graves's experiences as a young British officer on the Western Front during the First World War. Written with brutal honesty and unflinching clarity, it chronicles the harrowing realities of trench warfare, the senseless slaughter of a generation, and the profound psychological toll the conflict exacted on those who survived. Beyond the battlefield, Graves also details his turbulent upbringing, his years at Charterhouse, and a deeply conflicted relationship with English society and its institutions — all of which ultimately drove him into permanent self-imposed exile. First published in 1929, the memoir remains a definitive anti-war testament and an essential document of the human cost of the Great War, written with the sober authority of a man who witnessed it firsthand.
