Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Meanwhile a Packet of War Letters
I expressed a strong wish to the friend, H. L. G., who wrote me the following letters in days of great sorrow and trouble, that he would allow them to be published. It is my belief that they may help other people, as they have helped me. He said that they were only intended for me and I replied that it was just this which gave them their value, that they were not written for effect, but to help a par ticular case; not intended to win credit for the writer, but just to face a disaster which many people have had to face, more or less. He consented, and I am grateful to him and I hope they will be read rather than criticised, and treated as an affectionate confidence between friends. They may throw light on a dark path; and that is the most that any words can do.
