Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from With an Ambulance During the Franco-German War: Personal Experiences and Adventures With Both Armies, 1870-1871 I would also remind them (and every one who has been through a campaign will know) how vague and uncertain is the information which subordinates possess of the general movements of the army with which they are serving. It happens occasionally that they are wholly ignorant of events occurring around them, the news of which may have already reached the other side of the world. Again, I am greatly impressed with the difficulty of representing, in anything like adequate language, those scenes - some of which have already been delineated by the marvellous pen of M. Zola in La Débacle - which the general public could never have fancied, still less have realised, except by the aid of a masterly exposition of facts such as that stirring chronicle of the war has given. In it the writer has dealt rather with history as it occurred, than invented an imaginary tale; and those who were eye-witnesses of Sedan can add little to his description. For many reasons, therefore, I am filled with the sense of my own incompetence to do justice to my subject. But I console myself with the reflection that my theme is full of interest to the present generation. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
