Canada in War-Paint

Gelesen von LibriVox Volunteers

There is no attempt made in the little sketches which this book contains to deal historically with events of the war. It is but a small Souvenir de la guerre—a series of vignettes of things as they struck me at the time, and later. I have written of types, not of individuals, and less of action than of rest. The horror of war at its worst is fit subject for a master hand alone. - Summary by the author, Capt. Ralph W. Bell (4 hr 25 min)
