About this book

Major General Johnson Hagood provides his 1918 personal narrative of a post-World War I tour of the French, British, and American battlefields in the company of the commanders that fought there. He describes his Sixty-sixth Field Artillery Brigade's march into Germany in 1918. He records the wartime devastation, his impressions of the conditions he found his men in, the events of the tour, the devastation of the French countryside, the contrasting lack of suffering he found in Germany, the character of the Germans, and some predictions for the future.
