Excerpt from Six Months on the Italian Front: From the Stelvio to the Adriatic, 1915 1916This book is the result of a few hasty im pressions gathered over a period which, with all its minor inconveniences and little daily worries, I look back upon as among the happiest and best filled of a somewhat varied career. I have not yielded to the temptation to be interesting at the expense Of veracity, to that fact the indulgent reader will, I trust, attribute many of the dull pages. If In the latter half of the book I have laid particular stress on the operations leading u and culminating In the capture of Gorizia, I I'may be forgiven, as I had the good luck to be tgé only foreign correspondent on the spot at these scenes of History-making. In my dedication I have paid a humble tribute to the many kindnesses I received at the hands of the Military Authorities, from His Excellency General Cadorna downwards. I can only repeat it here.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
