Originally published in 1919, this 2 volume work chronicles the
British missions in Mesopotamia which the author, Edmund Candler
states the purpose as being 'the safeguarding of India and the
destruction of the Turk.' Looking back, Candler dislikes the morbid
tone of the early chapters, and looks to change them, yet
fortunately for future readers looking for a first hand glimpse
into this time period, he has 'left the mournful passages
uncorrected. There is more truth in them as they stand.' Including
these 'uncorrected' passages means that Candler writes in detail
and with honesty when covering the many battles and obstacles faced
by an army in a foreign land.
