Synopsis
Excerpt from French Pictures in English Chalk, Vol. 1 of 2
Well, the conscription week arrived at last, and the drawing Of the lots was to come off on the Friday. On the Sunday, going in to Mass (church is always very full on the Sunday before the con scription), I met Blanchette and said, Blanchette, Blanchette, I feel all the courage running out of me as the day approaches; if I draw a bad number, the best thing I can do is to go and throw myself into the pond.

French Pictures in English Chalk, Vol. 1 of 2 (Classic Reprint)
Print on DemandSeller: Forgotten Books, London, United Kingdom
Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book is a first-hand account of the author's experiences serving as a Zouave soldier under the rule of Emperor Napoleon III. The author joined the Zouaves in the hope of finding glory and meaning in life, but soon became disillusioned by the brutality and senselessness of war. He witnessed first-hand the horrors of combat, the deaths of his comrades, and the suffering of innocent civilians. Through it all, he struggled to maintain his humanity and sense of purpose. The book offers a powerful and moving indictment of war and a testament to the resilience of the human spirit. It is a must-read for anyone interested in military history, the history of France, or the human cost of war. Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
