Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from A Man for the Ages: A Story of the Builders of Democracy Dear Grandfather: At last I have got mine. I had been scampering towards the stars, like a jack-rabbit chased by barking greyhounds, when a shrapnel shell caught up with me. It sneezed all over my poor bus, and threw some junk into me as if it thought me nothing better than a kind of waste basket. Scents as if it had got tired of carrying its load and wanted to put it on me. It succeeded famously but I got home with the bus. Since then they have been taking sinkers and fish hooks out of me fit only for deep water. Don´t worry, I´m getting better fast. I shall play no more football and you will not see me pitching curves and running bases again. No, I shall sit in the grandstand myself hereafter and there will not be so much of me but I shall have quite a shuck on my soul for all that I´ve done a lot of thinking since I have been lying on my bad with nothing else to do.
