Excerpt from Winning a Cause, World War Stories Lest We Forget, the first volume of World War stories, gave an outline of the struggle up to the time of the signing of the armistice, November 1918, and contained in general, chronological order most of the stories that to children from ten to sixteen years of age would be' of greatest interest, and give the clearest understanding of the titanic contest. This, the second volume of the same series, contains the stories of the war of the character described, that were not included in Lest We Forget, stories of the United States naval heroes, of the Americans landed in France, of the concluding events of the war, of the visit of President Wilson to Europe, and of the Peace Conference. In a word, emphasis is placed upon America's part in the struggle. This volume should be of even greater interest to American children than the first, for it tells the story of America's greatest achievement, of a nation under taking a tremendous and terrible task not for material gain, but for an ideal.

A rediscovered World War I masterpiece—one of the few memoirs about the Italian front—for fans of military history and All Quiet on the Western Front An infantryman’s “harrowing, moving, [and] occasionally comic” account of trench warfare on the alpine front seen in A Farewell to Arms (Times Literary Supplement). Taking its place alongside works by Ernst JŸnger, Robert Graves, and Erich Maria Remarque, Emilio Lussu’s memoir as an infantryman is one of the most affecting accounts to come out of the First World War. A classic in Italy but virtually unknown in the English-speaking world, it reveals in spare and detached prose the almost farcical side of the war as seen by a Sardinian officer fighting the Austrian army on the Asiago plateau in northeastern Italy—the alpine front so poignantly evoked by Ernest Hemingway in A Farewell to Arms. For Lussu, June 1916 to July 1917 was a year of continuous assaults on impregnable trenches, absurd missions concocted by commanders full of patriotic rhetoric and vanity but lacking in tactical skill, and episodes often tragic and sometimes grotesque, where the incompetence of his own side was as dangerous as the attacks waged by the enemy. A rare firsthand account of the Italian front, Lussu’s memoir succeeds in staging a fierce indictment of the futility of war in a dry, often ironic style that sets his tale wholly apart from the Western Front of Remarque and adds an astonishingly modern voice to the literature of the Great War.

Let Us Try To Look Back, Lest We Forget A touching story of the millions of people who endured WWII Preserving memories of war is considerably amazing. Reminiscing of the past memories of warfare will bring us to the gloomy days that the people have endured. How much more if you were one of those who have witnessed and experienced the hostilities? Would it make you happy to think about them? Author Ivy Woods tries to save all of her memories prior and subsequent World War II with her desire to remember the historic event that has tainted the world's history and she would like to share it with us, Lest We Forget. The early part of her life was exposed to the aggressive era of war. At the age of fourteen, she was already working. But more than that she cannot forget her tragic experience with the wars that have made many impacts in her life. She relates about the brutal conflicts that would force the people to spend years of hiding in bomb shelters, the terror of mass destruction, Hitler's invasion of Poland, Great Britain and France's war against Germany, the Nazi occupation, the Japanese occupation, the wars in different countries, and the comfort women and their sufferings. There were many faces of sufferings during that time, millions of people had died by brutal killings, people were in great terror children, men and women, regardless of age endured the same fate. How much did they suffer? How long did they wait before peace took over? Lest We Forget there were brave young men and women who gave their lives for the sake of the life that the following generations would embrace. The moving story of the people who have endured during those times of wars might have injected pain and sadness to us. However, looking deeply into the history itself will give us the proud feeling and the joy that somehow, we have surpassed one of the greatest ordeals of time.
