About This Book
Excerpt from War Rhymes The reader of this booklet is not expected to agree with everything in it. The rhymes express only the impressions made on the writer at the time by the varied incidents and conditions arising out of the great war, and some of them did not apply when circum stances changed. They have been printed as written, how ever, and, if they serve no other purpose, may at least help us to recall some things that too soon have nearly passed out of our minds.
