Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Story of General Pershing
The purpose of the writer of this little book is merely to tell the story in outline of the career of the commander of the American Ex peditionary Forces in France. The modesty of General Pershing has kept his name out of print to a greater extent than in the case of many of our prominent men. His advancement also came rapidly in these recent years. As a result of these two conditions many of the fellow countrymen of the General are not familiar with the story of his early life or his successful work in the Philippines. This they not only have a right to know, but they ought to know.
