Shot at Dawn
T0848620737
Dawn, grey cloudless sky, stillness, gun-shot breaks the silence...Soldiers return to the front line, a colleague is gone, the fighting goes on... A compelling and evocative drama telling the story of two young soldiers from the Dorsetshire Regiment, on trial for cowardice and desertion. Based on fact and drawn from WW1 first-hand eyewitness letters, diaries and accounts, this powerful and heartfelt courtroom drama, tells the story of how these two heroes, shell shocked and shattered, were tried without a jury or any right of appeal.
