Sabaton History returns with the story of one of the most remarkable men of an age long gone now, Adrian Carton de Wiart.
One may well describe de Wiart as a madman who only felt alive when fighting in war, but I don't think so. He was a man yearning for adventure, which was most easily found in war at that time, and he got it good and hard- and gave back in equal measure. His is a story more of us ought to learn, and learn from, considering the questions of what to make of our lives and how to handle the changes life wreaks upon us when we err.
And yes, Indy is right; this man's life story should have been dramatized as a feature film or a premium series many years ago. I wonder where there might be some enterprising authors and artists looking for some material to turn into a pretty profitable project of particular importance culturally as well as creatively? This man is up there for real men of action whose deeds were equal parts awesome and terrifying, and the perception of which serves as a good filter for sussing out the r-select from the K-select.
(Hint: No rabbit respects a man like him, and won't be able to hide their contempt for long.)
As for the video, here you go- and get the new album as soon as you can so you don't need to rely on platforms controlled by people who hate you to listen to it.
