779		"A jolly book . . . truly one of the best that has yet come down war's grim pike." -- New York Post.

780		"Honest from first to last. . . . Resembles 'Innocents Abroad' in scheme and laughter ... a vivid picture of Europe at this hour. Should be thrice blessed, for man and book light up a world in the gloom of war." -- New York Sun.

781		"A unique chronicle, genuine and sincere." -- New York Times.

782		Here is a book of truth and humor. One of the first stories by an American that tell what America has done and is doing "over there." It is a tale such as Mark Twain would have written had he lived to do his bit in France.

783		Two "short, fat, bald, middle-aged, inland Americans" cross over to France with commissions from the Red Cross. Their experiences are told in a bubbling humor that is irresistible. The sober common sense and the information about the work going on in France -- the way our men take hold and the French respond -- go to make this the book all Americans have long been waiting for.

784		The inimitable sketches of Tony Sarg, distributed throughout, lend a clever, human atmosphere to the text.
