Excerpt from Wade in Sanitary! The Story of a Division Surgeon in FranceWhere all may hope to find, Not in the ashes of the burnt-out mind, But beautiful, with danger's sweetness round her. James Russell Lowell.I reported for duty at Headquarters of the Second Division on December 7, 1917, in the village of Bourmont, Haute Marne. Bourmont is a picturesque small town, the houses clustered together on the hilltop bringing vividly to mind the days when the Roman legions harried this country side, and safety lay in heavy walls, steep heights, moats, and drawbridges. We made many friends there during the long and weary months in train ing, indeed, so strong were the ties formed that later many of our men, when they got their leave, would return to visit some devoted French family.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
