He discusses the attitudes of the various nations involved in the war, as well as the role of the media in shaping public opinion. Overall, My Year Of The War offers a compelling and informative account of one journalist's experiences during World War I. It is a must-read for anyone interested in the history of the war or the role of journalism in times of conflict.The guns blazed the way and the infantry charged in the path of the guns' destruction; and they kept on while the shield of shell-fire held. When it left an opening for the German machine-guns through its curtain and the German guns visited on the British what their guns had been visiting on the Germans, the British stopped. A lesson was learned; a principle established. A gain was made, if no goal were reached.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
