When first published, the dust jacket contained the following message:
These delightful sketches, though traversed by the red thread of war, are a reflex of the mind of those cultured Englishmen who, while being in the war but not temperamentally of it, turned to Nature, Literature, and Art. The author writes from a full mind, and with the pen of an artist.
