'Neath Verdun, August-October, 1914

The author of this work, Mr. Maurice Genevoix, is a second-year student at the Ecole Normale, Paris. Having finished the second year of his course and, incidentally, completed a study "on Maupassant," he was in a position to regard with pleasant anticipation the vacation due to fall in July, 1914a month later he received his baptism of fire, and of what a fire! He supplies us with an invaluable picture of the war. In the first place, the writer is endowed with astonishing powers of observation; he sees all in a glance, he hears everything.
