Book excerpt: Many American citizens flocked to join the Allied war effort against Germany during the First World War before their mother country eventually declared war in 1917. William Yorke Stevenson was one of their number, volunteering for service with the French Ambulance corps or Section Sanitaire. Never war from the frontlines in rather ramshackle old vehicles [the flivver of the title is a slang term for a run-down truck], these men risked their lives to evacuate and treat the wounded. The Author recounts his experiences of 1915-1917 based on his dairy of the period. It provides a day-by-day account of the medical services behind the lines during some of the heaviest French fighting of the war during the battle of the Somme. Illustrated throughout with the Author’s own photos of the period, including his comrades, conditions and the battle damage of the towns and villages amongst which he worked and lived. Author — William Yorke Stevenson (1878 - 1922) Text taken, whole and complete, from the edition published in Boston and New York, Houghton Miflin, 1917. Original Page Count – 334 pages. Illustrations — 12 illustrations.

This book was released on 2014-08-15 with total page 105 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Contains 17 illustrations that the author took whilst in France. William Yorke Stevenson was one of a hardy bunch of American volunteers who joined the French army as an ambulance driver and was, indeed, a driving force behind American aid for the many wounded soldiers. As he was initially posted to the Verdun sector he would see the effects of some of the worst fighting on the entire Western Front which he recounted in his first book “At the Front in a Flivver”. His experiences continue in this volume which carries the action into 1917 and the further bloody battles that the French undertook to retake the ground lost to the Germans in 1916. Needless to say the casualties were horrific and Stevenson and his unit would show great courage in ferrying the injured from the frontlines to the hospitals in the rear. With the entrance of the United States into the lists on the Allied side, Stevenson and his men found themselves part of the official American effort, and passed from being a “Poilu” (a traditional name for a French infantryman - literally “hairy one”) to a “Yank”. A vivid and well-written account of service in the American Ambulance Corps with the French during the First World War.
