Book Description
This American fiction written in 1915 tells the World War I adventure of Cyril Hammersley and his fiancée, an American woman by the name of Doris Mather. Cyril's father was English, and his mother was Prussian, and it makes it difficult to figure out which country earns his loyalty in this conflict. He is constantly viewed with suspicion by almost all of the people in his social circle because he appears to be doing nothing at all, not even caring about what is occurring around him. Even his fiancée Doris doubts Cyril and pushes him time and time again to do something and care about what's happening. This exciting work contains spies and counterspies, encoded messages, confidential meetings, and a wonderful giant plane known as "The Yellow Dove". The tension built at the beginning of the novel remains till the end, which keeps the reader hooked throughout the story. This is an exciting work, considered very convenient for the public, and was most certainly intended to inspire as well as amuse the readers.

Hunting the Hun
Author: James Belton
Publisher: Createspace Independent Publishing Platform
ISBN:
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 280
Book Description
Originally published in 1918, with the memories of the war still harsh and fresh, Captain Belton and Lieutenant Odell's book of the war will be read with deep and sustained interest by everyone who wants to understand "the real thing." For myself I confess to being thrilled by the simple, direct, conversational style of the chapters describing the preparations for the attack on and ultimate capture of Vimy Ridge. The story is told with the terseness of a despatch. You see the battalion gathering for its deadly work after the training is done; you plod with it in Indian file along the Aux Reitz communication trench; you sprawl with the officers and men in the "jumping off" trench; you wonder whether the missing jar of rum will turn up in time, and, finally, you go "over the top" with what amounts to a sigh of relief that the ghastly period of waiting has ended and that the "Zero Hour" will mark either the end or the beginning of a strangely heroic experience. Here is the truth, and nothing but the truth, so you accept every word for what it is worth.
