    Impressions of War Written at and Near the Front

    von Irvin S Cobb
    Serien series Complete Cobb
    What is enclosed between these covers was written as a series of first hand impressions during the fall and early winter of 1914 while the writer was on staff service for The Saturday Evening Post in the western theatre of the European War. I tried to write of war as I saw it at the time that I saw it, or immediately afterward, when the memory of what I had seen was fresh and vivid in my mind.In Lesen Sie mehr

    Mr. Cobb's commentary on traveling in Europe as an American around the turn of the previous century gives an interesting sense of the era, and is always at least mildly amusing. But the real joy of this book is that Cobb is forever side-swiping you with startlingly funny, burst-out-laughing descriptions and observations.This book is amazingly valuable for a very simple reason. It was written and Lesen Sie mehr

    von Irvin S Cobb

    von Irvin S Cobb

  • The Thunders of Silence

    von Irvin S Cobb
    Serien series Complete Cobb
    A disturbing, and luckily impossible to implement, story of a demagogue driven to destruction by the press.

The disturbing part is that he is conspired against because of his message--peace--rather than because he is dishonest and manipulative.
