Until the day, which all lovers Of Russia h0pe is not far distant when the Russian General Staff will be able to publish to the world an official account of the work Of the Russian Army in the Great War, it is thought that these extracts from the Diary of a British officer may prove of interest. The writer can at any rate claim to have enjoyed greater opportunities for observation of the Russian army than any other foreign observer, both previous to the war as Military Attaché to the British Embassy at Petrograd, and during the war as liaison officer at the front. If some of his Russian friends find his comments occasionally over frank, he asks their forgiveness. He wrote things down as they seemed to him at the time.
