Eugene (Micky) Ryan was born in Ireland and studied medicine at Cork and Edinburgh. After a period of private practice in London he was commissioned into the RAMC in 1901 and saw active service in South Africa. After meeting Douglas Haig in 1912 the two men's lives became intertwined and their relationship, while primarily professional, blossomed into a friendship of mutual respect. The correspondence in this book proves the degree of trust and friendship between Ryan and both Haig and his wife.
