episode 21: Ep21 Machen: The Bowmen & The Soldier
World War 1 Story by Arthur Machen & World War 1 Poem by Rupert Brooke
We finish our honouring of soldiers from all wars with the classic story, The Bowmen, written by Arthur Machen. This famous story tells the tale of British soldiers, during World War 1, avoiding certain defeat at the hands of the German army through a mysterious intervention.
This is followed by the wonderful poem by Rupert Brooke, The Soldier.
Simply Stories would like to remember and honour soldiers of all wars.
