Book excerpt: Excerpt from Letters Written Home From France in the First Half of 1915 Although so many Americans are giving heart and energy to the effort of lightening in some way the suffering of Europe, only a small proportion has chosen to take a part within the line of action. Those of us who have any one we care for there in the midst of it all know that, like men who go to explore mysterious distances, they are generally very much beyond our horizon for months at a time at least as regards correspondence. An intense sympathy for the purpose they have gone to serve makes news of them doubly welcome when it does come. Believing that those who have pleasant memories of the writer of these letters would be interested in reading these impressions written home, his mother and father have generously consented to put them into this form.

Download or read book Letters From France Classic Reprint written by C. E. W. Bean and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-02-08 with total page 262 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Letters From France These letters are in no sense a history-except that they contain the truth. They were written at the time and within close range of the events they describe. Half of the fighting, including the brave attack before Fromelles, is left un touched on, for these pages do not attempt to narrate the full story of the Australian Imperial Force in France. They were written to depict the surroundings in which, and the spirit with which, that history has been made; first in the quiet green Flemish lowlands, then with a swift, sudden plunge into the grim, reeking, naked desolation of the Somme. The record of the and its now historical units in their full action, will be painted upon that background some day. If these letters convey some reflection of the spirit which fought at pozieres, their object is well fulfilled. The author's profits are devoted to the fund for nursing back to useful citizenship Australians blinded or maimed in the war.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Denis Oliver Barnett: In Happy Memory; His Letters From France and Flanders, October 1914-August 1915 Home and school had conspired to bring his natural gifts to a wonderful variety and excellence. From his early years - it might be truly said to have been his possession by double inheritance - he showed that instinctive feeling for beauty in words which lies at the root of scholarship; many of his older friends will recollect with what zest as a small boy he used to hear and repeat poetry. On such a soil a classical education was sure to bear its best fruits. His work in Latin and Greek was marked not only by extra ordinary facility but by imaginative power and real sympathy with the genius of language. Latin verse composition has been declared by an eminent scholar to be the supreme test of scholarship and it may confidently be left to good judges to decide whether the compositions included in this volume Will not bear comparison in their spontaneity and beauty with the best work in this kind. They certainly approach the ideal of being themselves Latin poetry and not merely renderings of English poetry into Latin. He had also the accomplishments which sometimes, though by no means invariably, go with classical scholarship. He wrote excellent humorous verse in English, and on occasion was a graceful and witty speaker. But though Dobbin loved books, he was never bookish He grew up with the splendid strength and physique which should belong to youth - well over six feet in height, broad in proportion, supple and fleet of foot; competent critics prophesied for him athletic distinction at the University equal to that which he had won at school. He had to the full the taste for sport and outdoor life natural to a healthy young Englishman. At home he learnt early to ride andswim and became an excellent shot. He enjoyed thoroughly a long tramp with his gun at Burnt Hill, or a day's wild duck shooting in the Essex marshes with his schoolmaster Mr. L. H. S. Mathews, between whom and his pupil existed one of those friendships which are the peculiar privilege of public school life. But he was not a mere sportsman any more than a mere athlete. His days among the lanes and heaths of one of the most beautiful of English counties had given him - though he rarely spoke of it a passionate love for the country side. His knowledge of Woodcraft was extraordinary; birds and animals had few secrets from him. He brought the same quick and accurate observation and the same sympathetic understanding to Nature as to books: and he did not go unrewarded.

Download or read book Letters Written by the Fatherless Children of France to Their American Godparents Classic Reprint written by and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-11-21 with total page 68 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Letters Written by the Fatherless Children of France to Their American Godparents As we have read the childish letters written SO laboriously and with such infinite pains, some of them sadly misspelt and guiltless of punctuation, others evidently censored by the maternal hand, and others still inspired by some older head, we have been profoundly moved and impressed. It seems that a great current of love has been set moving between these two republics, a current of disinterested, and selfless love finding expression on the one hand in generous helpfulness, on the other hand in loving gratitude. This current will grow until it becomes a great flood which will help to wash away the dark stains of conflict and will give us faith to believe in the high destiny of humanity. If the expression of the love of little children will help us to preserve this faith then the object of this little book is attained and it will again be true, as has happened all through the ages, that a little child shall lead us.
