Excerpt from Over the Canadian Battlefields: Notes of a Little Journey in France, in March, 1919
The articles which go to make up this little book were written for newspaper publication immediately following the journey over the battlefields, in France in March, 1919, which I had been enabled to make, through the courtesy and kindness of the Canadian Corps Commander. They were published in April, 1919, in the Manitoba Free Press, Winnipeg; and are now republished at the request of many friends who have asked that they be made available in more permanent form.
Though the articles reveal their journalistic origin alike in their form and in a certain evanescent timeliness, already partly out of date it has not been considered advisable, under the circumstances, to re-cast them into more permanent form. They are re-published as written save for some slight textual corrections.
