An Ideal Christmastide Gift: The Return of the First-Born from the Field of Battle. The eldest son of a British family returns home from the front (with his arm in a sling) and tells his younger siblings thrilling tales of the war by a roaring fire - the peace and tranquility of home life contrasting no doubt with the noise, dirt and discomfort of the trenches.
