Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Desert Campaigns I was prompted to write this book by a sentence in a letter received from a colleague on the Western Front, a thinking man, who some months ago expressed the hope that the war in Egypt would soon be over, for then "the good boys out your way will be able to come to France to see what war is." That betrayed a lack of knowledge of the Army's work in Egypt, and from what I have heard from many sources, not the least important being letters received by soldiers from friends at home and on the Western Front, I am afraid it echoes the opinion generally held in Britain. All the great London newspapers, who did me the honour of selecting me to act as their correspondent with the Egyptian Expeditionary Force, have been generous in the amount of space allotted to the labours of this Force, but a good deal the newspapers have recorded has been forgotten in the ever-changing picture of all the battle fronts.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Desert Warfare: Being the Chronicle of the Eastern Soudan Campaign In the portion of this book which treats of the operations of major-general Graham's force, I have preserved and presented to the reader my telegrams and letters in the form in which they were cabled and appeared in the columns of the London Daily Telegraph. Even the dates and names of places whence they were despatched are preserved, with the view to distinctly mark the days as well as the hours they were sent. In none of the telegrams has there been the slightest attempt at alteration, either for compositional improvement or in order to modify and trim expressions of opinion. As they were they are, except in the few instances where a printer's or tele graphist's error has crept in, or explanatory passages have been added.

Book excerpt: "North Africa was the site of some of the most volatile battles of World War II. For journalist Alan Moorehead, it was war in its purest form, "a knight's tournament in empty space."" "In Desert War, which includes the complete texts of The Mediterranean Front, A Year of Battle, and The End of Africa, Moorehead writes about what he saw. He recounts with dazzling prose and intimate detail the heroes and legends, the soldiers and prisoners, the military strategies, the strengths and weaknesses of those involved, and portraits of generals Rommel, Montgomery, and Patton. Woven throughout are observations on the landscape, the Mediterranean shores and the vast desert, which inevitably played a role in shaping the battles. For Moorehead, "desert warfare resembled war at sea. Men moved by compass. No position was static. Each truck or tank was as individual as a destroyer."" "Written by a man who lived and breathed the conflict in North Africa during World War II, Desert War is a eyewitness account and an inspired piece of writing by a master of his craft."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Children of the Desert Will you come with me to the Gate of the Desert, that Great Sahara, the largest desert in the world. To get there you must cross the sea, land at Algiers, the white town of the pirates, and travel two days through the mountains of North Africa, - part Of the great Atlas range that holds up the Sky. Sometimes these are covered with snow, and if you are there in January, you may see a wonderful red Sunset over the white mountains. From huddled farms and villages come gleams of bonfires, for even in Africa, the children make snow-men and play round them, and as the train labours on you will see your first camel in its native land. It comes out of the glow of the sun set, padding softly along through the snow and casting a long shadow before it, its head waving patiently from side to Side, a large pack fastened on to its hump, and the Arab driver walking behind. That night you sleep at a little mountain inn by the railway station, and Margot, the strong French peasant girl, will bring you a steaming supper of wild boar and rice. Presently, perhaps, a burly French farmer comes in and joins the guests at the long table; he does not forget to take off his great white goatskin coat, wash his hands and bow politely before he sits down as near to the stove as possible.

Book excerpt: Includes more than 20 illustrations by James McBey and the World War One In The Desert Illustration Pack- 115 photos/illustrations and 19 maps spanning the Desert campaigns 1914-1918 “Written by the foremost accredited London newspaper journalist in the Middle East during the Great War, William Massey covered the war in the Middle East as it was fought against the Ottoman Turkish Empire, its German ally and the tribes of the region who supported them. He was aware of the hardships suffered by the British and Colonial troops serving in the difficult climate and later became a champion of those who fought there. He writes of the complete conflict from the battles in the western desert with the Senussi to Aleppo and beyond to the borders of Turkey.”-Print Edition “Mr. Massey, who was the official correspondent with our forces, was moved to write this highly interesting account of the campaigns in Egypt on being told by a colleague on the Western Front that the Army in Egypt should " come to. France to see what war is." He shows that the British, Australian, New Zealand, and South African troops in Eastern and Western Egypt had a very arduous experience of war, and that the battle of Romani in August, 1916, was a hard-fought and decisive victory, in which the Turks lost nearly half their strength. At first we were content to hold the line of the Canal, Leaving the Desert to the Turks. But this defensive policy involved grave risks. Mr. Massey reminds us that the Turks repeatedly tried to lay mines in the Canal, and once succeeded in damaging a ship, so that traffic was delayed for half-a-day. The true policy, afterwards adopted, of holding a line far to the east of the Canal, and then of clearing the Turks out of Sinai altogether, meant very hard work for the Army and the Labour Corps, but was completely successful. Mr. Massey describes at the close the remarkable little operations against the Senussi in Western Egypt.”-review in The Spectator 24th May 1918
