The soldiers are tasked with setting up a radio station on the island, but they soon find themselves facing a series of challenges, including hostile locals and the harsh conditions of the island itself.The book provides a vivid and compelling account of life during the First World War, and offers a unique perspective on the conflict from the point of view of a journalist who was on the front lines.
