Sir James Rennell Rodd a key diplomat during the First World War holding the post as the United Kingdom’s ambassador to Italy. It was through his influence that secured the adhesion of the Italians to the Allied cause even during the bloody battles in the rocky outcrops of the North East of the country. This tied down large numbers of Austrian and German troops that could have been utilised on other fronts.
He published his memoirs in three volumes, of which this is the third, between 1922 and 1925; they were received with some acclaim, following a life-long passion with literature he wrote with an easy style, with a great eye for detail and a vivid eye the political tides that ebbed and flowed around him.
An interesting book from a viewpoint often forgotten in the literature of the First World War.
