The Sherwood Foresters in the Great War 1914 - 1919
by W. C. C. Weetman
About the author
W. C. C. Weetman is credited as the author of The Sherwood Foresters in the Great War, 1914–1919, a history of the 1/8th Battalion. The book has been preserved in modern reprints and public-domain listings, which is why his name still appears in library and bookseller records today.
Very little clearly verified biographical information about Weetman is easy to confirm from widely available sources. What can be said with confidence is that he is associated with a detailed account of the Sherwood Foresters in the First World War, making his work most relevant to readers interested in regimental history, wartime service, and contemporary military storytelling.
Because reliable personal details are scarce in the sources reviewed, it is best to remember him through that surviving work: a focused historical record tied to one battalion's experience in the war.
