Book Description
Excerpt from True Stories of the Great War, Vol. 3 of 6: Tales of Adventure; Heroic Deeds; Exploits Told by the Soldiers, Officers, Nurses, Diplomats, Eye Witnesses I have upset the United Kingdom and the United States of America! His Imperial Majesty haw-hawed in good English, though in rather a harsh voice, mak ing a gesture of the right hand toward the chair of alleged British make, and the fallen book with George Henty's name on its back, at the same time giving me one of the most direct looks I have ever had, full in the face. It seemed to challenge me, and I remem bered having heard that a short cut to the Kaiser's favor was a smart repartee. The worst of it was that like a flash I thought of one which would be pat, if impertinent, but I dared not risk it.
