Item description from seller

This essay is founded upon a diary which recorded passing events as they appeared to the diariest at the time of their happening. No attempt has been made to correct first impressions by the doubtful light of subsequent reflection. The character of Lord Kitchener, sketches of his colleagues and contemporaries, glimpses of the background before which these personages moved, were set down at the time and remain untouched. It is perhaps their only merit. Lord Kitchener asked me to go to France in September, 1914, and to remain there. His request was subsequently renewed by Mr. Asquith and the present Prime Minister. As a Sub-Cmmissioner of the British Red Cross in France, I was, furthermore, brought into contact with many phases of the War. From these opportunities the journal and correspondence sprang which form the basis of this essay. Blue boards with gilt lettering. Foxing to end pages and edges. Some fading to boards. Wear to corners of boards through age.
