The book is a personal account of the author's experiences during the early stages of World War I, specifically his time spent with the Allied forces in Belgium and France. The book is divided into several chapters, each detailing a different aspect of the war effort. Davis describes his encounters with soldiers on the front lines, as well as his interactions with civilians who were affected by the war. He also provides insight into the strategies and tactics employed by the Allied forces, and offers his own opinions on the war and its outcomes. Throughout the book, Davis emphasizes the bravery and sacrifice of the soldiers fighting for their countries, and expresses his admiration for their courage in the face of danger. He also highlights the devastation and destruction caused by the war, and the toll it takes on both soldiers and civilians. Overall, With The Allies is a compelling and insightful account of the early stages of World War I, written by a journalist who was on the ground and witnessed the events firsthand. It provides a unique perspective on the war and its impact on the people involved, and is a valuable historical document for anyone interested in this period of history.More Uhlans followed, the hoofs of their magnificent horses ringing like thousands of steel hammers breaking stones in a road; and after them the giant siege-guns rumbling, growling, the mitrailleuse with drag-chains ringing, the field-pieces with creaking axles, complaining brakes, the grinding of the steel-rimmed wheels against the stones echoing and re-echoing from the house front. When at night for an instant the machine halted, the silence awoke you, as at sea you wake when the screw stops.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
