Authored a diary recounting frontline experiences in World War I; described in reviews as an Austrian artillery lieutenant whose diary is praised for vivid, moving first‑person narration.

A first‑person wartime diary by Austrian artillery lieutenant Fritz Weber, praised for its vivid, harrowing descriptions of frontline life in Trentino, the Isonzo, Pasubio and the Piave. The reviewer reports devouring the 350‑page book in a week and highlights themes of endurance, horror, heroism and defeat.

For:Readers of World War I memoirs, military history enthusiasts, and those interested in frontline diaries and first‑person war accounts.

 The diary is wonderful because it narrates the brutalities of the epic clash with such strong and moving passion that despite the work, I literally devoured the total 350 pages in just a week.
