Army Letters, 1897-98 (Classic Reprint) by Hugh Oakeley Arnold -Forster Pdf
Excerpt from Army Letters, 1897-98 In introducing the following letters a few general remarks are permissible. In the first place it may be said, without undue assurance, that, generally speaking, the letters represent the views of at least nine-tenths of the officers and men actually serving or on the Retired List. This is no idle boast: it is a statement founded upon the ample and convincing testimony of a corre spondence extending over several months, of in numerable interviews and conversations, and of the collation of opinions expressed in many quarters. The War Oflice may be quite right, but the con viction that they are entirely wrong is so deeply rooted and widely extended throughout the whole of the British Army, that a civilian is not only justified in noting the fact, but is bound as a reasonable man to do so.
