ISBN/ASIN: 116520567X
Number of pages: 316
Description:

Later, in the cities of Europe, in the devastated districts, in the towns under bombardment, in the front line trenches, that truth was forced upon me. So I have remembered chiefly the human incidents and impressions that will have a real meaning for the individual, who has had the foresight to visualize himself, his family, and his friends entangled in the struggle.
