Charlie Wesencraft is one of the key early wargamers who through their
enthusiasm, knowledge and writing helped turn miniature wargaming into a
worldwide hobby. This is the
previously unpublished diary of his father in law.
Robert Waister’s diary describes how he served first in the Territorial
Army, then joined the 18th Hussars. It goes on to tell how he was captured
in one of the opening actions of the First World War. The rest of the book
recounts life as a prisoner of war in Germany until he was released in a
prisoner exchange through the intervention of neutral doctors.
