Description: London: T.Fisher Unwin Ltd, 1921. 1st edition. "The author of this book kept a diary, often under considerable difficulties and on odd scraps of paper, owing to the order which forbade the taking of diaries into the front lune: occasionally these had to be written in cipher or destroyed when there seemed a possibility of the writer being captured..The narrative does not pretend to be in any way a full or accurate account of events, being merely the experiences of the writer and his deductions.." Pp.284, frontispiece + 7 further black & white photo illustrations, 11 maps, inscribed "With the author's compliments" to front free endpaper, erratum slip tipped-in to p.13, occasional light spotting, toning to endpapers. Red cloth, gilt title to spine, slight fading to spine and uneven sunning to boards, wear to top and tail of spine, bumps to front fore-edge and corners. Scarce. G+.
