C The Army Medical Service made immense strides towards efficiency in the years succeeding the South African War. Those who were at that time responsible for its organisation profited by the experience gained, and took steps to improve the organisation of the medical service as it then existed. The newly organised service entered the field at Mons, and at once was subjected to the most severe ordeal which the medical service of an army can undergo, namely, a rapid retreat necessitated by the overwhelming numerical superiority of the enemy.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Story of the Great War It was tragic that the men and women who fought the war were too busy to study it. The greatest peril of the new era is that they will still be too busy with reconstruction to devote even casual attention to the great event itself, in the light of which alone can the decisions be made by which the new era is to be shaped. People are weary of working and weary of reading. Yet there was never a time when effort was more necessary nor when a little would have such significant results upon national and international events.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A History of the Great War, Vol. 1 This work in its original form appeared in twenty-four volumes between February 1915 and July mm, and was therefore written and published for the most part during the progress of the campaign. Begun as an experiment to pass the time during a period of enforced inaction, its large sales and the evidence forthcoming that it met a certain need induced me to continue it as a duty, and the bulk of it was written in the scanty leisure which I could snatch from service abroad and at home. Any narrative produced under such conditions must bristle with imperfections. It will contain many errors of fact. The writer cannot stage his drama or prepare the reader for a sudden change by a gradual revelation of its causes. His work must have something of the apparent inconsequence of real life. He records one month a sanguine mood and a hopeful forecast; three months later he will tell of depression and of expectations belied. He must set out interim judgments, and presently recant them.

Book Synopsis Three Years of the Great War by : Frank Herbert Simonds

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Three Years of the Great War: A Comprehensive Review With the declining importance of the war correspondent, due to the immensity and stricter censorship of modern warfare, has come the rise of the great war editor. The new center of military information is this master student who, versed in the geography and topography of the fighting countries, and possessing an accurate estimate of the strength of the contending forces and a first-hand knowledge of the morale of the men, traces the ebb and flow of the lines on each of the fronts; watches with hawk eyes the seeming minor events that indicate a coming drive or retreat; and, with almost prophetic pen, points out what to expect shortly at a given point. The one American editor ideally equipped for his great task is Frank H. Simonds. For years before this war Mr. Simonds was a reporter for metropolitan newspapers in positions that brought him into contact with the biggest men in this country. In Washington and Albany he acquired a political insight that proved invaluable to him when he came to study the present war where so many military movements are undertaken with an eye to purely political effect in one country or another. For years before this war Mr. Simonds made the study of geography and military history his hobby. He pored over all available accounts of the strategic campaigns of the American Civil War and those European struggles, the Napoleonic and others, that were fought over the same ground where the front line trenches now stand.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Tales of the Great War MY dear g., -i have written this book and you are going to read it - we are partners and must play up to each other. Let me tell you my idea Of how it should be done. My part is to give you the truth, the actual facts, well evidenced and clearly arranged. Your part is to read them in such a way as to understand them - that is, to understand not only what happened, but how heroic and how admirable are the qualities which lie behind. You will see, as you read, why I ask you to play up and do your part. It is because I cannot do it for you. I have told you here of good work and courage and endurance, such as deserve all the loudest adjectives that I could have shouted at you; but I have not shouted, and I have used as few adjectives as possible. It is you, not I, that must make the stories come alive. You will not, I hope, imagine that I have written coldly; no - but the hotter I got myself the more keenly I wished you to be kindled by your own feelings, and not by my words. If you find yourself glorying in these records as I do, come and tell me so when the War is over, and we will get a little music and make a noise together.

This book was released on 2018-02-06 with total page 356 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Concise Chronicle of Events of the Great War I trust that this chronicle of the chief events of the war will prove a useful and an interesting record. It has been decided to omit maps, because their inclusion within bounds less than cumbersome would prove practically worthless. The number of towns, as opposed to villages, which were definitely connected with the war is surprisingly small, and their locality is known to nearly every one. The great majority of places which the war has brought into prominence are villages so small that they are marked only in maps of an exceptionally large scale. What is required, therefore, for adequate study of the topography of the war, is either a moderate number of maps of great size or a far larger and confusing number less bulky but each covering only a small area. As the inclusion of either would necessitate a detached and cumbrous volume, I have in its absence taken pains to indicate accurately the posi tion of every place whose locality might be unfamiliar. In the following pages the names given to the battles, and the dates on which they began and ended, are from sources either official or authoritative. The same may be said of the strategical or tactical aims or results which I have in some cases noted - particularly in 1918.

Download or read book The Great War written by Theodore Dehon Jervey and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-11-25 with total page 106 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Great War: The Causes and the Waging of It The following short story of the Great War was prepared by the author in the winter and spring of when it became probable that the United States would be drawn in through the resumption by Germany of unrestricted sub marine activity against neutral shipping and neutral non combatants. It was thought that in the Southern States, especially, a clear understanding of the causes of the war and a truthful account of the waging of it, up to our entrance in it, might be of some value to those who might not have given much attention to the consideration of such before this time. In this connection, if it was advisable for the representatives of the French and British Governments to indicate to us their mistakes, it was thought by the author appropriate that, while revealing, to some extent, the Splen did courage, devoted patriotism and wonderful determina tion of the Allies to exhibit, at the same time, the evidence of courage, capacity and determination of our foes which a study of the war reveals. Also, if there have been mistakes made by our Allies, as yet not as apparent to them as to some of us, the revelation of such might be as helpful to us and to them as was the recital by them of those they did see and thought necessary to expose to us so clearly.

Book Synopsis Pictorial History of the Great War (Classic Reprint) by : S. J. Duncan-Clark
Download or read book Pictorial History of the Great War (Classic Reprint) written by S. J. Duncan-Clark and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-03-03 with total page 516 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Pictorial History of the Great War The need of a popular History of the Great War, which should be at once authoritative and free from bias and weak sentimentalism, is felt by all. This volume is designed to fill this need. It attempts to encompass the causes of the great conflict, the chief happening of military and political importance during the bloodiest fifty-one months of the world's history and their results and their effects upon the nations involved. An earnest endeavor has been made to take the reader through the most important phases. The limitation of this work to one volume makes the giving of exhaustive details of every incident, every battle, every siege, every advance or retreat, an impossibility. But in this very limitation lies the books greatest value. To please a tactician, chapters might be devoted to the battles along the Marne, the Somme, the Yser, at Cambrai, or to the struggle before Verdun or to the Russian campaigns. But for the reader who seeks a straightforward, circumstantial narrative of the great war, without its chief events being clouded and obscured by a multiplicity of subsidiary details, this book has been written. Devotion of time to research by the very best authors and critics has been given that its facts may be clearly and accurately presented. It contains no statements based on rumors, no accounts taken from unauthoritative sources. The New World undoubtedly was a great determining factor in the overthrow and crushing of junkerism, and for that reason this volume should be of the greatest interest to the peoples of Canada and the United States. Over two and one half million sons of North America crossed to France. Their concentration and transportation was one of the greatest military feats in history. Canada, as a part of the British Empire, naturally became involved first. Her record of service will fill every patriot with a feeling of pride and inspiration. The active share in the war by the United States, though it covered only a little over a year and a half, is the nation's most glorious achievement. With this in mind, painstaking effort has been made to do the fullest justice to all in recounting the parts played by these nations during the months of their unselfish crusade against autocracy and militarism. Entertaining visualization of the war is best attained through photographs. Consequently this book has been profusely illustrated with hundreds of scenes officially photographed during the long period of campaigning on all the great fronts. These in themselves tell the narrative in a convincing manner. In securing these pictures, the most skilled men attached to the fighting forces were employed. Many were taken by men who risked death for a "close up." In preparing this instructive, inspiring and entertaining history, no vital episode of the war has been overlooked. The narrative is complete from the demolition of Liege to the restoration of Peace. It is hoped that it will do full justice to the sacrifice, courage, steadfastness in the face of great difficulties, of the tireless and valorous fighting men of the British Empire, France, Italy, Belgium, Serbia and the United States.
