- "A Long Way to Tipperary?, the wartime diary of Maurice Neal, has achieved No.1 Best Seller status on Amazon in the Biographies of World War I category. The ranking reflects continued reader interest in authentic, firsthand accounts of the First World War.
Written during Neal’s service with the King’s Royal Rifle Corps, the diary chronicles more than two years in the trenches, capturing the daily realities of bombardment, loss, endurance, and survival. The immediacy of the writing offers a rare and unfiltered perspective on trench warfare.
First published decades later through the work of Neal’s granddaughter and editor, Stephanie Hillier, the book has found a lasting readership. Its No.1 bestseller status highlights its importance as both a historical document and a deeply personal record of war."
