Publisher's Synopsis

With Joffre On The Battle Line: The Adventures Of An American Boy In The Trenches (1915) is a memoir written by Ross Kay. The book chronicles the author's experiences as an American volunteer in the French army during World War I. Kay joined the army at the age of 18 and was sent to the front lines to fight alongside French soldiers under the command of General Joffre. The book provides a vivid and detailed account of the horrors of trench warfare, including gas attacks, artillery bombardments, and hand-to-hand combat. Kay also describes the camaraderie and bravery of the soldiers he fought alongside, as well as the devastating toll the war took on their physical and mental health. With Joffre On The Battle Line is a powerful and moving firsthand account of one young man's experiences during one of the deadliest conflicts in human history.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
