Herbert McBride sa narodil s rodinnou tradíciou vojenskej služby. Jeho spomienky sú považované za jeden z najlepších priamych opisov prvej svetovej vojny, zachytávajúci zmes cti a chrabrosti s osobnými zlyhaniami. McBrideova práca sa ponára do vojnových skúseností, často sa zaoberá témami ako je statočnosť a ľudské nedostatky.
