Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from My War Experiences in Two Continents In presenting these extracts from the diaries of my aunt, the late Miss Macnaughtan, I feel it necessary to explain how they come to be published, and the circumstances under which I have undertaken to edit them. After Miss Macnaughtan´s death, her executors found among her papers a great number of diaries. There were twenty-five closely written volumes, which extended over a period of as many years, and formed an almost complete record of every incident of her life during that time. It is amazing that the journal was kept so regularly, as Miss Macnaughtan suffered from writer´s cramp, and the entries could only have been written with great difficulty. Frequently a passage is begun in the writing of her right, and finished in that of her left hand, and I have seen her obliged to grasp her pencil in her clenched fist before she was able to indite a line. In only one volume, however, do we find that she availed herself of the services of her secretary to dictate the entries and have them typed. The executors found it extremely difficult to know how to deal with such a vast mass of material. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
