Excerpt from The Long Road to Victory This is a book of soldiers' tales, told, for the most part, by those who took part in the events they records. They are drawn from many branches of service and from many countries; sometimes they are concerned with great and critical operations, but more often they deal with episodes and sideshows in the huge business of war. Their romance is the romance of naked truth undecorated by fancy, for the authentic miracles of the last few years have left the professional romancer limping far behind. There has never in the worlds history been such an arena of drama and strange adventure as that long road which the Allies travelled to victory. Libraries will not exhaust its treasures; indeed, it will be years before we, who have been preoccupied with special stages, will be able to grasp the wonders of the whole journey. This budget of wayside tales is only the cutting of a few sheaves at random from an immense harvest. The book is intended especially for those who are only now growing to manhood, and were too young themselves to take part in the campaigns. It would not be a good thing to be always thinking about the war, for the eyes of youth should be turned forward. But it would be a worse thing to forget it, for it is a matter for everlasting remembrance and eternal pride.

Excerpt from The Road to Victory A fact of momentous importance is that not until the coming into existence of this Teutonic sub - race was there a really self-governing people. The earliest written history we have of this branch of the white race is the statement by Julius Caesar while he was campaign ing against them. A century later was written a more complete description by Tacitus in the little volume Germania. It appears that in the German for ests the young men upon attaining manhood were emancipated - given their freedom by their parents; whereas among the earlier peoples the father guided his family, including his male ascendants and their families, as long as he lived.* But in the German for ests there existed a people wherein the adults ruled themselves, aided by par ental and other advice.

Excerpt from The Way to Victory, Vol. 1 of 2 IN my last book Of collected dispatches From Bapaume to Passchendaele - I dealt first with the German retreat after the Somme battles to the Shelter, Of their Hindenburg line; then with the Arms battles which began with a strik ing victory and petered out into ininor actions when our troops, with grim perseverance and no light losses, contin ued to hold German divisions so that the French might strike more freely elsewhere; and, in the third part, with the battles in Flanders - those muddy, bloody battles Of last year - ending with the capture Of the ridges. All that fighting, so heroic, SO costly, SO disappointing as it seemed in its immediate and apparent results when in March and April Of this year, 1918, the enemy came sprawling back over all the ground we had gained, must be remembered in order to understand the happenings that followed - the incomplete success of the Cambrai adventure in November, the great retreat in March, the arrival Of the Germans on the Marne with their dreadful threat to Paris, and the strategy Of the French Genera-lissimo, the fine genius of Foch, SO patient in his waiting for the moment to strike back, so terrific when he struck, leading up to the glorious recovery and victories of the British armies in August and September. For in war as in normal life there are no isolated facts. Nothing happens that is not the direct con sequence Of previous events and conditions, and that does not lead like a chain Of fate to results that follow by in evitable laws. The lack Of complete success of the French II. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from The Pathway of Victory It IS observable that our popular hymns usually postpone victory until after this life is ended; and it becomes a question whether we are enjoying the present fruits of Christ's victory to the full, and whether we are not relegating to the future those moral triumphs and Spiritual successes which we might be obtaining now.

Excerpt from The Long Road One of the profoundest impressions of Stepan Iline's childhood was mud, and one of the most last ing. Just as the clammy mud had stuck to his aching little feet on the long, long road from Kazan in Russia to Irkutsk in Siberia, the road that seemed as if it would never end, so the recollection of it hung dark in his memory for many a long year in fact, until he grew to manhood and had other and better things to think about. And even then the mud was never to be quite for gotten, because the sight of Katia made him think of it at times, and at such times he smiled, though it was no smiling matter when he was up to his knees in it. For, you see, Katia had come to him in the mud and he had never forgotten the very first time he saw her.

Excerpt from A Hard-Won Victory Why should you do it P he went ou, glancing around the pretty room as if making note of its various luxuries. If your grandfather had been a poor man dependent only upon his profession, and you had been left penniless, I could understand. But he had ample means beside, and you tell me it has all been left to you. There is no shadow of need for you to work. Why then should you go out of your way to do voluntarily what so many un fortunate women are praying on bended knees to be spared the doing? I don't expect you to understand, Jean answered, ' her soft color coming and going as she spoke. But I must do something more than just live. I had grand father to care for before - her voice faltered a little be filled all my life I was necessary to him I needed no other work while I had him. But now I have nobody - absolutely nobody - in all the world; not a relation left, not any one, anywhere, to belong to - to do for. And I want to do something with my life, to be of some use to somebody, to be helpful in some way to others. Why should I be idle when I so want to be useful P.
