Synopsis
A narrative of a young officer's fears and triumphs, of the discomforts and tragedies attendant on battle, the terrors and confusion in the midst of action against a fanatically tenacious enemy. It is an account of the insidious drain on stamina and courage that all men face during prolonged exposure to battle.
