His diary tells of the hope and the carnage the long journeys and endless nights the friendships, the horror and the hunger the family he misses, the news he is anxious to receive the sound of gunfire and the pain of swollen feet the fear and the courage in the trenches the sickness and the injuries and a very narrow escape from death. Our soldier recounts the first two months of the First World War, from the moment France officially declares war and mobilisation is announced, until early September 1914. We just have his words, and in his own words and Barroux's extraordinary pictures, this is his story.

We don't know who the soldier is or what became of him. Barroux rescued the diary from a rubbish heap and illustrated the soldier's words. One winter morning, Barroux was walking down a street in Paris when he made an incredible discovery: the real diary of a soldier from the First World War.
