Over There by Arnold Bennett Pdf

Over There: War Scenes on the Western Front by Arnold Bennett In June, 1915, the War Propaganda Bureau arranged for Bennett to tour the Western Front. Bennett was deeply shocked by the conditions in the trenches and was physically ill for several weeks afterwards. His friend, Frank Swinnerton, later recalled, "he visited the front as a duty, and was horrified at what he saw and felt that he must not express that horror." Nonetheless, Bennett agreed to provide an account of the war that would only encourage men to join the British Army. The result was Over There: War Scenes on the Western Front (1915), finally available again in this quality paperback reissue. It is required reading not just for all history buffs, but for students of psychology, political science and advertising as well.

Over There by Arnold Bennett Pdf

From the balcony you look down upon massed and variegated tree- tops asthough you were looking down upon a valley forest from a mountain height.Those trees, whose hidden trunks make alleys and squares, are rooted in thehistory of France. On the dusty gravel of the promenade which runs betweenthe garden and the street a very young man and a girl, tiny figures, are playingwith rackets at one of those second-rate ball games beloved by the Frenchpetite bourgeoisie. Their jackets and hats are hung on the corner of the fancywooden case in which an orangetree is planted. They are certainly perspiringin the heavy heat of the early morning. They are also certainly in love. Thislively dalliance is the preliminary to a day's deskwork. It seems ill-chosen, silly, futile. The couple have forgotten, if they ever knew, that they are playingat a terrific and long-drawn moment of crisis in a spot sacred to the finestcivilisation..

Over There by Arnold Bennett Pdf

We were met at a poste de commandement by the officers in charge, who were waiting for us.And later we found that we were always thus met. The highest officer present-General, Colonel, orCommandant-was at every place at our disposition to explain things-and to explain them withthat clarity of which the French alone have the secret and of which a superlative example exists inthe official report of the earlier phases of the war, offered to the Anglo-Saxon public throughReuter. Automobiles and chauffeurs abounded for our small party of four. Never once at anymoment of the day, whether driving furiously along somewhat deteriorated roads in the car, orwalking about the land, did I lack a Staff officer who produced in me the illusion that he was livingsolely in order to be of use to me. All details of the excursions were elaborately organised; neveronce did the organisation break down. No pre- Lusitania American correspondent could have beenmore spoiled by Germans desperately anxious for his goodwill than I was spoiled by these Frenchwho could not gain my goodwill because they had the whole of it already. After the rites of greeting, we walked up to the high terrace of a considerable chateau close by, and France lay before us in ashimmering vast semicircle. In the distance, a low range of hills, irregularly wooded; then a river;then woods and spinneys; then vineyards-boundless vineyards which climbed in varying slopes outof the valley almost to our feet. Far to the left was a town with lofty factory chimneys, smokeless.Peasant women were stooping in the vineyards; the whole of the earth seemed to be cultivatedand to be yielding bounteously. It was a magnificent summer afternoon. The sun was high and a fewhuge purple shadows moved with august deliberation across the brilliant greens. An impression ofpeace, majesty, grandeur; and of the mild, splendid richness of the soil of France

Over There - War Scenes on the Western Front by Arnold Bennett,F. J. Harvey Darton Pdf

“Over There” is a 1915 account of life on the 'Western Front' during the First World War by English writer Arnold Bennett. The Western Front was the central area of battle during the war. It was defined by a line of trenches created by both sides that stretched from the North Sea to the Swiss frontier with France and which changed little during the war. This volume will appeal to those with an interest in the First World War and especially the horrors and hardships of life for those on the front lines. Enoch Arnold Bennett (1867–1931) was an English writer. Although he is perhaps best remembered for his popular novels, Bennett also produced work in other areas including the theatre, propaganda, journalism, and film. Other notable works by this author include: “Helen with a High Hand” (1910), “The Card” (1911), and “Hilda Lessways” (1911). Contents include: “The Industrious Apprentice”, “The Zone of Paris”, “On the French Front”, “Ruins”, “At Grips”, “The British Lines”, “The Unique City”, etc. Many vintage books such as this are becoming increasingly scarce and expensive. It is with this in mind that we are republishing this volume now in an affordable, modern, high-quality edition complete with an introductory essay by F. J. Harvey Darton.
