Dawson's father compiled these letters, written to family and friends, into a small 133 page book. Dawson was a writer of some accomplishment before he enlisted in the Canadian army. As an Englishman transplanted to the United States, he enlisted early. In fact, the last letter in the collection discusses the possibility of the Americans joining the war.
Dawson's style is musing and introspective. Due to censorship of the times he doesn't deal in specifics, but he gives us enough of a glimpse into his military life to understand a bit of the changes he undergoes. A fascinating slice of time and place. Highly recommended ( )
