"Do that, Pioneer," he said impressively after a moment, looking down upon him over his shoulders. Kollin, who had just been made fast with the knee-strap, smiled with astonishment. Even though he was not at the moment in a position to take up the challenge, yet the invitation to do so cheered him to the utmost, and he made up his mind to attempt it with another chair as a preliminary as soon as ever he had the opportunity.

Paul Alverdes was a German novelist and poet. He volunteered for duty in World War I and received a severe injury to the throat. The Whistlers’ Room appeared in 1929. He later wrote books for children.
“The latest title in Casemate's brilliant war fiction series, The Whistlers Room was first published in 1929, this edition having been translated from the original German. Alverdes himself was wounded in the throat and what he describes in the book was largely based on his own personal experiences. Extremely atmospheric and poignant. A real gem.” (Books Monthly)
