Revision as of 13:41, 24 June 2002 by Deb (talk | contribs) (*links)(diff) ← Previous revision | Latest revision (diff) | Newer revision → (diff)Goodbye to All That is an autobiography by Robert Graves that was first published in 1929. It expressed Graves' desire to say "Good-Bye to All That", "All That" being an England dominated by middle class morality. Graves was only in his thirties at the time of writing, and had a long and eventful life ahead of him; the book deals mainly with his childhood, youth and military service.
Graves heavily revised Goodbye to All That and it was published again in 1957 with many significant events and figures either excised or added.
Edmund Blunden and Siegfried Sassoon were deeply suspicious of the work and famously savaged a copy (now housed in the Royal Welch Fusiliers archive in Caernarfon).
