Description
Excerpt from Peter Moor: A Narrative of the German Campaign in South-West Africa
I have always felt that all war stories dwell too much on the glory and glamour of war, and too little on the hardships and horrors and the unneces sary cruelty of it; and so when I read a little German book about the Southwest African war of 1903 - 04, I Wished that every one else might read it. To me it was absorbingly interesting and beautifully told. This summer I have translated it in the hope that it will affect other people as it affected me.
