"A most worthwhile read."Stand To!
Barkleys autobiographical work does an exceptional job of conveying his story to readers, using early twentieth-century American language with no holds barred. . . . The greatest benefit this book provides, aside from the firsthand account of Barkleys Congressional Medal of Honor actions is its insight into the First World War from the vantage of a frontline soldier and the camaraderie that existed in small units. . . . Scarlet Fields is worth reading for both general historians interested in World War I as well as those looking for specific insight into the combat psyche of the U.S. frontline soldier on the western front in 1918.H-Net Reviews
