Eighteen Months In The War Zone Classic Reprint PDF Download

Excerpt from Fred Mitchell's War Story: Three Years in the War Zone My chief object in bringing out this volume of my experiences during the early part of the war has been to convey to American readers a true idea of what non-combatants in the invaded country, as well as close to the battle lines, were compelled to undergo. There has also been a wish on my part that this hook may help me in bringing some slight measure of relief to many little orphans, most of whose parents I once knew, and to older but just as helpless sufferers. I vouch for the truth of everything I relate. It will be observed that these pages contain very little that is based on hearsay evidence. Nearly everything in them is the result of personal observation, purchased at a heavy cost in the way of danger and hardship. My happiness will be great if I can help a little to bring about a true realization of the menace which the German Empire, as at present constituted, is to the rest of humanity, and how absolutely necessary it is that its crushing power should be for ever broken.
