Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from An Eye-Witness in Manchuria A few words by way of preface may possibly save the readers from misconception regarding the scope and nature of the following narrative. In the first place, I would say that the book is in no wise concerned either with the causes or with the possible consequences of the war between the empires of Russia and Japan. In it, so far as was possible, political questions of every kind have been left untouched. I have made no attempt to write a complete history of this great and as yet unfinished war, being of opinion that the time for any such attempt to be made, with any reasonable hope of success, is still distant. What I have endeavoured to set forth here is a simple record of personal experience gained during nine months spent with the Russian Army in Manchuria. Having followed and studied the campaign as a soldier, I have striven to give here a straightforward account of the many stirring events which came within my own actual experience; this without extenuation or disguise, and, assuredly, without malice.
