The men took their place in a line of trenches that spread through Belgium and France from the North Sea to the Swiss Alps. Beyond the trenches was no-man's land, an eerie wasteland where rats lived in the ribs of the dead and the wounded cried for help. Beyond that was the German Army." -- Back cover Analysis World War I (Australia) juvenile Nonfiction Notes Children's Book Council of Australia short-listed book Bibliography Includes bibliographical references (pages [217]-228) and index Audience For secondary school age Notes Teacher notes reproduced with permission of Australian Standing Orders/Scholastic Translated from the Swedish The Children's Book Council of Australia : Short-listed book Subject Australia.
