add to cart   close window

The article discusses books and authors. "Témoius" by Jean Norton Cru, is a remarkable book of great interest to historians, psychologists, librarians, pacifists, students of literature, and many others. Unless suppressed by a conspiracy of silence it will cause many a militarist to rage and many a French writer to gnash his teeth, but it deserves to be consulted carefully as a notable contribution to what war really is. It confirms Sherman's dictum. Cru has collected, annotated, analyzed, and skillfully compared several hundred French war diaries, reminiscences, reflections, and novels of persons who claim to have fought at the front and to have been "witnesses" of the realities of the World War I.
