Publisher's Synopsis

Above The Battles is a book written by French author C. H. A. Andre and originally published in 1919. The book is a collection of essays and observations written during World War I, and it focuses on the author's experiences as a French pilot flying over the battlefields of the Western Front. Andre's writing is both poetic and philosophical, as he reflects on the beauty and horror of war, the bravery of soldiers, and the importance of maintaining hope and humanity in the face of destruction. The book also includes illustrations by the author, as well as photographs of the war taken from the air. Above The Battles is considered a classic of war literature, and it offers a unique perspective on the Great War from the vantage point of a pilot soaring above the chaos below.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
