About the Authors
  • Originally published in 1926, as the second edition of a 1920 original, this highly popular novel narrates the experiences of a British colonel in France during World War I. Maurois draws on his experience as a translator and liaison officer to the British army from 1915 to 1916 to create this study of humanity in wartime. By turns sad and whimsical, and published in the original French, this book will be of value to anyone interested in Allied experiences in the First World War or in wartime fiction.
