Description: "The following pages hardly touch on the famous incidents of the War. There is no record of its chief events, no echo of its great controversies. This book is the simple diary of a citizen soldier, a story of four years of happy adventure whose measure of variety was pressed down and running over. But I have attempted more than a story. The War was an education for millions and I have tried to explain how it influenced me." --W.B., from the Introduction.
