The Board of Editors has selected for VOLUME VI this group of
stories told by Soldiers and Army Officers direct from the battle-grounds
of the Great War. It includes 165 episodes and personal
adventures by forty-two story-tellers--"Tommies," "Boches,"
"Poilus," Russians, Italians, Austrians, Turks, Belgians, Scotchmen,
Irishmen, Canadians, Americans--the "Best Stories of the
War" gathered from the most authentic sources, according to the
plan outlined in "Introductory" to Volume I. Full credit is given
in every instance to the original sources.
