Good-bye to all that : $b An autobiography

"Good-bye to all that: An autobiography" by Robert Graves is an autobiography first published in 1929. Written at age 34 as a "bitter leave-taking of England," it chronicles Graves's family history, childhood, public school years, and harrowing service as an officer in the Royal Welch Fusiliers during World War I. Through unsentimental and often darkly comic prose, Graves depicts trench warfare's brutal realities, near-fatal wounds, and lasting trauma, while examining the conventions he broke and the old order that perished in war's aftermath.
