Beschrijving

In May 1916, the Italian authorities requested an independent observer from Great Britain to visit their front lines and share insights during a critical moment in the war. Faced with a setback in the Trentino due to a sudden Austrian concentration bolstered by heavy artillery, I was honored to undertake this mission. To ensure a thorough comparison, I requested to visit the British lines first, a request graciously granted by the War Office. I was also fortunate enough to receive permission to explore the French front. At this pivotal time in the conflict, I had the unique opportunity to witness the battle lines of our three great Western allies. I only regret that I couldnt also observe the valiant Belgian army, which has performed admirably on the far left flank of the freedom coalition. My experiences and reflections are documented here in hopes of dispelling the misunderstandings and petty rivalries that our cunning enemy seeks to exacerbate. - Summary by Arthur Conan Doyle, Crowborough, July 1916.
