Book excerpt: Excerpt from Shellproof Mack an American Fighting Story The things that are set down here are written from the standpoint of the plain private soldier, one who went as a volunteer, it is true, but who hated the whole vile business of war as any private soldier must, and who was glad when his work was done. If this book has any value it is because it is a true telling of the things that are, over there, and because it is without what the British Tommy calls camouflage. This book lacks, no doubt, everything that would be put into such a story by a professional writer, the brilliancy of expression and the vividness of narrative; but if it is without those things it is because it is the tale of a soldier and not of a war correspondent.
