""These brief sketches are only fragmentary and have of necessity
been hastily written. The writer has been asked to state his
impression of the work among the men in France. He did not go there
to write but to work. He has tried simply to state what he saw and
to leave the reader to draw his own conclusions. A mere statement
of the grim facts at the front, if they are not sugar-coated or
glossed over, may not be pleasant reading, but it is unfair to
those at home that they should not know the hard truth of the
reality of things as they are."" This book is part of the World War
One Centenary series; creating, collating and reprinting new and
old works of poetry, fiction, autobiography and analysis. The
series forms a commemorative tribute to mark the passing of one of
the world's bloodiest wars, offering new perspectives on this
tragic yet fascinating period of human history. Each publication
also includes brand new introductory essays and a timeline to help
the reader place the work in its historical context.
