The War Below
In the midst of the great war, Colonel “Hellfire Jack” Norton-Griffiths hatches a daring plan to break the deadly stalemate at the battle of messines. He recruits a group of local miners to dig a tunnel underneath no man’s land, from the allied trenches to the german trenches, in hopes of successfully setting off bombs from below the german line and saving the allied war effort.
“Real-life account of miners recruited in the first world war to burrow beneath German lines is fascinating and does well on a limited budget.” ~The Guardian
