Summary "Craven's Part in the Great War" by John T. Clayton is a historical account written in the early 20th century. The book documents the contributions and experiences of the Craven Territorials, specifically the 6th Battalion Duke of Wellington's Regiment, during World War I. The focus is on the local soldiers from Craven who engaged in the conflict and the sacrifices they made for their country. The opening of the text establishes the purpose of the work as a tribute to those from the Craven area who served in the Great War. It outlines the noble intentions of the author and contributors to commemorate their courage and resilience in battle. The narrative begins on the eve of the war, highlighting the community's response to the mobilization orders and quickly transitions into the early days of training, setting the stage for their subsequent engagements and heroism on the battlefields. This introduction serves as a heartfelt acknowledgement of local history amidst the broader context of the war. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
