Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from From Gallipoli to Baghdad The desire to keep in touch with my Congregation during a prolonged absence with the Army, by means of a weekly letter, led to the writing of pretty full notes of what was happening from day to day. Some of the letters were printed in the Scotsman, the British Weekly, and other journals; and many suggested that they might be made available in a more permanent and accessible form. I did not think, however, a mere reprint of the letters desirable. The invitation of Messrs. Hodder and Stoughton to contribute a volume to their war library gave me the opportunity to make fuller use of the materials in my possession. This book is not concerned with questions of high policy or strategy, although opinions are expressed when clearly justified. The story of the campaigns is the framework in which is set the picture of our gallant men, and the actual conditions of their soldier-life, as I knew them during more than two years of close intimacy on the shell-swept Peninsula of Gallipoli, in the Egyptian desert, and along the banks of the Tigris, in that forlorn land of mighty memories.
