Críticas:

This diary of 'Old Bill' Ransley is a moving account of selfless Christian service rendered to gravely wounded soldiers from across the Army during the Battle of the Somme. His passion for the gospel, his care of the wounded and his support to the Chaplains were exemplary and in the best tradition of SASRA which continues to tell the good news of Jesus Christ in todays Army and Royal Air Force. --Brigadier R J Thomson, CBE, DSO

Reseña del editor:

SASRA (The Soldiers' & Airmen's Scripture Readers Association) brings you old Bill's writings during the Battle of the Somme, from July to November 1916. Old Bill (William Ransley) became an Army Scripture Reader shortly after leaving the army in 1889. Having worked for God in his last six years serving in the army, he decided to dedicate his time and energy to sharing the gospel full time with the men and women of the military. His work saw him sailing off to the hospitals in northern France, where he experienced the bloodbath of the Battle of the Somme through his encounters with injured soldiers from both sides. His journal gives a glimpse of the role of Scripture Readers and sheds light on the message of hope SASRA readers took, and still take, to the men and women of the Armed Forces.
