1919. With an historical appendix by Joyce Kilmer. From the
Preface: Battles are not fought by commanding officers alone, not
even by chaplains unaided; and the men who do the fighting usually
get little personal credit for their valor. My chronicle claims no
merit save that of being true. The only critics I had in mind while
writing it were those who fought in France. If they say that the
pictures are true, I am content. The diary style has been
deliberately chosen because it permits the introduction of
incidents, and also lends itself to the telling a plain unvarnished
tale. Contents: Preparations at Home; In Training Abroad; The
Luneville Sector; The Baccarat Sector; The Champagne Defensive; The
Battle of the Ourcq; After the Battle; The St. Mihiel Offensive;
The Argonne Offensive; and With the Army of Occupation.
