Bag om A Traveller In War Time

A Traveller In War Time is a non-fiction book written by Winston Churchill, which was first published in 1918. The book is a collection of the author's personal experiences and observations during his travels in Europe and the Middle East during World War I. Churchill's travels took him to France, Belgium, Italy, Egypt, and the Balkans, where he met with military leaders, politicians, and ordinary people, and witnessed the effects of war on civilians and soldiers.The book is divided into several chapters, each of which focuses on a different aspect of Churchill's travels. In the first chapter, he describes his journey to France and his impressions of the French people and their war effort. In subsequent chapters, he discusses his visits to the battlefields of Flanders and the Somme, his meetings with Italian leaders in Rome, and his travels to Egypt and the Middle East.Throughout the book, Churchill provides vivid descriptions of the places he visited, the people he met, and the events he witnessed. He also shares his thoughts and opinions on the war and its impact on Europe and the world. A Traveller In War Time is a fascinating and insightful account of one of the most tumultuous periods in modern history, written by one of the most important figures of the 20th century.There turned out to be plenty of ideas, after all. An opinion was ventured that Mr. Lloyd George served the nation, not for money but from public spirit; a conservative insisted that ability should be rewarded and rewarded well; whereupon ensued one of the most enlightening discussions, not only as a revelation of intelligence, but of complexes and obsessions pervading many of the minds in whose power lies the ultimate control of democracies.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
