Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Camps, Quarters and Casual Places
There was young Silberer the many-sided and eccentric, an Austrian nobleman, a Vienna feuille tonist and correspondent, a rowing man, a gourmet, ever thinking of his stomach and yet prepared for all the roughness of the campaign - warm-hearted, passionate, narrow-rninded, capable of sleeping for twenty-three out of the twenty-four hours, and the wearer of a Scotch cap. There was Kuster, a German journalist with an address somewhere in the Downham Road and Duff, a Fellow of College, the strangest mixture of nervousness and cool courage I ever met.
