Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Origin of the War Term No Man's Land as Applied to the World War
The subject matter of the following pages was drawn primarily from the author's experiences which began on an island in Lake Champlain near Westport, New York, called No Man's Island, and his subsequent discussions with a group of distinguished gentlemen, the majority of whom were foreign personages, and I might say, leaders of thought and philanthropy in Europe. Among these was the late Count Casimir de Monkowski, owner of the famous motor boat, the Ankle Deep, which won many speed championships on the St. Lawrence River and Lake George during the last decade.
