Running into No Man's Land

To celebrate the Centenary of the First World War, CWR has commissioned this biography of Woodbine Willie.He was Anglican priest and poet Rev Geoffrey Studdert Kennedy, better known as Woodbine Willie, because of his propensity to give out woodbine cigarettes along with Bible verses and comforting words to the wounded. Woodbine Willie was seen as a hero on the Western Front during the First World War.As we commemorate one hundred years since the start of the First World War, we look back upon Woodbine Willie and learn from his wisdom.
