Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.

Arthur St. John Adcock was a writer of remarkable reputation in the early decades of the twentieth century. As a prominent journalist on Fleet Street, his tremendous experience and literary insight were perfect qualifications to create this volume of war stories from the frontlines of the First World War. He compiled the letters, diaries, and accounts of the eye-witnesses, soldiers, and officers who fought during the beginning of the war. In this incredible book, he focused on the battles around Mons, the demolition of Louvain, the fighting at Ypres, the first combat of the Marne, and marine activities in the North Sea. Well worth a read. Contents include: The Baptism of Fire The Four Days' Battle Near Mons The Destruction of Louvain The Fight in the North Sea From Mons to the Walls of Paris The Spirit of Victory
