Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Flashes From the Front Well, Mr. Grasty turned out to be a good prophet on his own country. He never wavered in his faith that his country would vindicate the honor of its sovereignty. He believed in the Allied cause and he believed that his fellow-citizens believed in it. He knew that his President understood the interest and honor Of America and the issues at stake in the war. And the fact that in all these things he turned out to be right is to me at least, a sufficient recommendation for this book.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Our Army at the Front Perhaps England knew that a great hour was in the making, for her rolling green hills gave back the warmth of a splendid sun, and her hedgerows and wild blooms braved forth in crystal air. Those Of the newcomers who saw England first that afternoon thanked their stars fervently that England and democracy were on the same side. In mid-afternoon the train reached London, and here the Americans were greeted, not alone by soldiers and England, but by the English. The secret of their coming, carefully kept, had given the port civilians no chance. But they knew it in London and the station was crowded to its doors. General Pershing stepped from the train as soon as it stopped. Ambassador Walter Hines Page came over to him, both hands outstretched, and asked leave to introduce another general who had taken an Expeditionary Force to France General Sir John French. Other introductions followed - to Lord Derby, General Lord Brooke, and Sir Francis Lloyd. And there was a hearty handshake from a fighter who needed no intro duction - rear-admiral William E. Sims.

Download or read book A Soldier on the Southern Front written by Emilio Lussu and published by Rizzoli Publications. This book was released on 2014-02-25 with total page 277 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A rediscovered World War I masterpiece—one of the few memoirs about the Italian front—for fans of military history and All Quiet on the Western Front An infantryman’s “harrowing, moving, [and] occasionally comic” account of trench warfare on the alpine front seen in A Farewell to Arms (Times Literary Supplement). Taking its place alongside works by Ernst JŸnger, Robert Graves, and Erich Maria Remarque, Emilio Lussu’s memoir as an infantryman is one of the most affecting accounts to come out of the First World War. A classic in Italy but virtually unknown in the English-speaking world, it reveals in spare and detached prose the almost farcical side of the war as seen by a Sardinian officer fighting the Austrian army on the Asiago plateau in northeastern Italy—the alpine front so poignantly evoked by Ernest Hemingway in A Farewell to Arms. For Lussu, June 1916 to July 1917 was a year of continuous assaults on impregnable trenches, absurd missions concocted by commanders full of patriotic rhetoric and vanity but lacking in tactical skill, and episodes often tragic and sometimes grotesque, where the incompetence of his own side was as dangerous as the attacks waged by the enemy. A rare firsthand account of the Italian front, Lussu’s memoir succeeds in staging a fierce indictment of the futility of war in a dry, often ironic style that sets his tale wholly apart from the Western Front of Remarque and adds an astonishingly modern voice to the literature of the Great War.
Download or read book The Real Front Classic Reprint written by Arthur Hunt Chute and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-08 with total page 326 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Real Front All those who have come under the star-shells of the firing-line, have touched the point where life is epic. Where the brazier fires burn at night along the shivering trenches existence may be bare of comfort, but it rings with loud adventure. Unto our children's children, and beyond, the grayest lives lived in those trenches shall shine forth with colors of romance. It is well to read history in an arm-chair, but it is far better to make history under the blue. It was grand to live in the spacious days of good Queen Bess. But we need envy no past age, who have helped to make the history of this present. Beyond the objective happenings, the author has tried to bring home some of those subjective facts, that will remain, when mere events have been forgotten. The Real Front is a place where one is always face to face with the profundities of life. I was talking with a gray-bearded gentleman the other day and, speaking of a certain event, I said, "Of course, sir, only old men like yourself and I can appreciate such things."

Download or read book The American Front Classic Reprint written by Ernest Peixotto and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2016-06-21 with total page 318 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The American Front I have written this book in the form of a personal experience, and I hope the reader will pardon me if I have dwelt unduly upon the personal note; but it seemed to me that a simple eye-witness's account of the things that I had seen - many of them of exceptional historic interest - would be of value not only to those who might write of these events here after, but also to many of the pilgrims who will visit the battle-fields of France later on. This sort of narrative, too, it seemed to me, was best suited to accompany the drawings that I made as literally and truthfully as possible, from nature and on the spot, and that, I hope, will find their place in the iconography of the Great War. Those reproduced in this book are but a fraction of the series that I made for the War Department, being a choice of those best suited to illustrate the text.

Download or read book Behind the Scenes at the Front Classic Reprint written by George Jefferys Adam and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-03-23 with total page 266 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Behind the Scenes at the Front This book describes the political conditions in France on the eve of the outbreak of the war, and endeavours to give a picture of the period of Siege warfare which began when the race northwards from the Aisne brought the Allies and the Germans face to face throughout the whole length of Southern Belgium and of France. The choice of the material of the book has been dictated by personal experience. Those are the two phases of the war with which the author is most familiar. As correspondent of The Times, he was invited to pay a series of visits to the front in France and in Belgium during the five winter months. This book is the result of those visits to the lines. Its object is not to attempt the hopeless task of furnishing a history of this period. If it gives to the reader some small idea of the splendour of the British effort in Flanders, if it conveys but a hundredth part of the author's admiration for the army and the people of France, it will have attained its object.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from On the War Path: A Lady's Letters From the Front It was written in all sorts of odd surround ings and is in consequence scrappy and not always English. My publisher, however, tells me I am not to touch it up, and I may say that what it lacks in grammar it makes up in truth. I put down things as they were and endeavoured not to say how I thought they ought to have been; there has already been far too much irresponsible lay criticism of matters military and medical in South Africa.

This inscription they had visited in a previous year. Further, the quick eye Of the hostess of Dunecht had caught sight of some curious sculptures on a stone by the road-side on the way to the minus cule inscription; and other like stones in the neighbourhood had been shewn in Stuart's two volumes of Sculptural Stones of Scotland.
