DOWNLOAD EBOOK"Very short, highly anecdotal memoir of a machine gun officer's WWI adventures in France, the Balkans, and finally with Allenby across Arabia. Many of the anecdotes are entertaining, even moving. This book does a decent job reminding us that Allenby's army did most of the heavy lifting, while the threat of Lawrence's band on the flanks or cutting down a column on the move made the Turks quick to retreat rather than get boxed in at the end of the campaign. One is left wondering how many men from Gilbert's unit survived the whole war, first in the trenches of France, a few months of combat near Salonika, and finally enduring the very harsh conditions and lack of supply in the Middle East." --

DOWNLOAD EBOOKExcerpt from The Romance of the Last Crusade: With Allenby to Jerusalem By a chance most fortunate I heard Major Vivian Gilbert tell the story which he has written here. When it was done, I was astonished to find that he had been talking for an hour; time had been quite forgotten, and I was ready to listen to him for as much longer as he might have been willing to speak. So have I, by certain firesides, sat enthralled while others from the Somme, or the Argonne, or Mesopotamia, made us forget time while they forgot themselves in narrating what they had seen and done; but this was in privacy: none have I heard who could hold an audience in public with a war tale as Major Gilbert did. Such tales Should be told and should be set down. They serve to remind us of the greatness in man at a time when his littleness seems chiefly to the fore. They will serve the future, too, as documents. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
