Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from From Mons to Ypres With General French: A Personal Narrative This is a plain tale. I am an American, and I have believed from the commencement of the war that the Allies´ cause was just. I am an admirer of brave soldiers, and willing to pay tribute to good work, from a military standpoint, by men on either side. For ten months I was with the British Expeditionary Force in France and Flanders. I am so greatly indebted to many units of the British Army for the opportunity afforded me to undergo experiences which form the subject matter of this somewhat rambling narrative, that I must make my acknowledgments, for the most part, collectively. At the hands of Sir John French´s Headquarters Staff I met unfailing kindness and courtesy throughout my sojourn in their midst. Of General Smith-Dorrien I can sincerely speak as all speak who have met him, with profound recognition of his high attainments as a. military leader, and of his great heart. Truly, a kinder man I have never met. During the months I spent with the British Cavalry I felt an ever-increasing pride to have been attached to that branch of the Service. The officers and men of the 2nd Cavalry Brigade could not have been more friendly had I been of their own number.
