This book is not, by any means, to be regarded in the light of an attempt to describe any particular period, or phase, of the Great War. It is simply an endeavour, and a very crude one, to set before the public, in as concise a manner as possible, a certain amount of information which has been collected in the course of over four years' campaigning in France and Flanders. There are many thousands of people who will want to see the ground over which the fighting took place; some, no doubt, out of pure curiosity, others with a much more pathetic object in view. To the latter their journeyings will be more in the nature of a pilgrimage than a mere round of sightseeing, and should the information contained herein prove of use to these pilgrims, I shall feel more than amply repaid for my trouble.
