"God, in Thy mercy, let me never again hear any one speak of the Glory of War! I am too exhausted to feel tired."

Ralph Scott's magnificent World War I classic has come to ebooks for the first time. In a harrowing, graphic account of life on the front lines of The Great War's trenches, Scott was unsparing of the horror he witnessed.

Few generals know what the line soldier experiences. In his forward to Scott's classic, Major-General Sir Frederick Maurice writes, "...they have neither time nor space to concern themselves with the things that mattered to the men in the ranks. We can only get the things that matter, the misery, suffering, and endurance, the filth, the horror, the desolation, which are a part and the greater part even of the most triumphant progress in modern war, from the men who have experienced them."

Scott's book changed the face of how war was viewed back home.

For the first time, this long out-of-print volume is available as an affordable, well-formatted book for e-readers and smartphones.
