Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Paris War Days, Diary of an American, 1914 This is not a story of the world-wide war. These notes, jotted down at odd moments in a diary, are published with the idea of recording, day by day, the aspect, temper, mood, and humor of Paris, when the entire manhood of France responds with profound spontaneous patriotism to the call of mobilization in defense of national existence. France is herself again. Her capital, during this supreme trial, is a new Paris, the like of which, after the present crisis is over, will probably not be seen again by any one now living. As a youth in the spring of 1871, I witnessed Paris, partly in ruins, emerging from the scourges of German invasion and of the Commune. As a correspondent of the New York Herald, under the personal direction of my chief, Mr. James Gordon Bennett - for whom I retain a deep-rooted friendship and admiration for his sterling, rugged qualities of a true American and a masterly journalist - it was my good fortune, during fourteen years, to share the joys and charms of Parisian life.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines the experiences of Americans in Europe during the First World War prior to the U.S. declaration of war. Key groups include volunteer soldiers, doctors, nurses, ambulance drivers, reporters, diplomats, peace activists, charitable workers, and long-term American expatriate civilians. What these Americans wrote about the Great War, as published in contemporary books and periodicals, provides the core source material for this volume. Author Kenneth D. Rose argues that these writings served the critical function of preparing the American public for the declaration of war, one of the most important decisions of the twentieth century, and defined the threat and consequences of the European conflict for Americans and American interests at home and abroad.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A pattern has been given to the history of the events between 1914 and 1918 which is called the 'Great War'. To Henri Desagneaux and to thousands of others, there was no pattern to be seen from the trenches where he executed orders which ensured that dozens of men had to die attempting to achieve impossible objectives worked out at a headquarters in the rear. His diary, one of the classic French accounts of the conflict, gives a vivid insight into what it was like to execute those orders, and to live in the trenches with increasingly demoralized, unruly and mutinous men. In terse unflinching prose he records their experiences as they confronted the acute dangers of the front line. The appalling conditions in which they fought and the sheer intensity of the shellfire and the close-quarter combat have rarely been conveyed with such immediacy.

THE MAKING OF PEACE The time has not yet come when a satisfactory history of the Peace Conference can be written. It is too vast and complicated a subject, and besides, the work it undertook is by no means finished, and as a body it still exists. And when that history is written, it will fill a shelf with fat volumes, whose very indexing will constitute a formidable work. On the mind of the public the Conference produced a bad impression. I. suppose expectation had run too high; we thought that the Armistice meant the defeat of the Germans, that the defeat of the Germans meant a Conference, and that the Conference would make peace in about a fortnight, and all would immediately be as it was in 1914, save the aching vacancies at every hearth-side. Those must remain, but all the other shadows would flee away. We prepared to welcome the Conference with open arms. Had we kept them open all the time we should have had to have an Aaron each to support them; for indeed it was long a-coming, and longer still a-going. If I have to record that Paris went through months of impatience and discontent, at any rate one must remember that she had excuses. She had passed through the war with a noble dignity which even her profiteers could not defile; but on the morrow of the Armistice there fell upon her that natural reaction which attacks us all after a long spell of endurance and a sudden overwhelming joy. She wanted rest and ease; and neither was possible. The Conference was heralded by enormous crowds of secretaries and under-secretaries and private secretaries, who filled the hotels, snapped up every furnished flat, hired every car, and, worst of all, put up the price of living. The natural traffic of the city had...

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Part scrapbook, part memoir, this wonderfully colourful and eloquent diary brims with vivid observations, providing a rare snapshot of what life was like on the Home Front during the First World War. Amateur artist, animal lover and keen writer of letters to the papers, Mrs Bilbrough witnessed the men leaving for war (her husband, Kenneth, a banker in the City, was fortunately too old to be called up); the horses at Waterloo waiting to be transported to France; bombings and airraids; the introduction of the Daylight Saving Bill and food price increases (her consternation as the price of a tin of tongue rose from 2/- to 4/6 is clear!). She also writes at her outrage at the shooting of British nurse Edith Cavell; her sadness when Lord Kitchener is drowned at sea; her alarm as Zeppelins flew over Kent and her anger at the wide-ranging German atrocities. Her relief as war ended is palpable ('PEACE! The armistice is signed, "the day" has come at last! And it is ours!'). Interspersed with her daily jottings are cuttings and cartoons, her own watercolours and drawings and the colourful flags that were sold to raise money for the troops. Charming yet moving, this diary gives us a taste of what it was really like to live through the Great War, seen from the perspective of an acute social observer.
