Book Description
Excerpt from Over the Seas, for Uncle Sam We have learned some things in war times that we did not know in days of peace. We have made the amazing discovery that our own fathers and brothers and husbands and lovers are potential heroes. We knew they were brave and strong and eager to defend us if need be. We knew that they went to work in the morning and returned at night just so that we might live in comfort; but we never dreamed that the day would come when we would see them marching off to war - a war that would take them far from their own shores. We never dreamed that, like the knights of old, they would ride away on a quest as holy as that of the Crusaders. As for army and navy life - it had always been a sealed book to us, a realm into which one was horn, a heritage that passed from father to son. We heard of life at the army post.

These selected paragraphs distill the contents and give you a quick look inside Over the Seas for Uncle Sam: Look inside the book: And because those of us who send our men to sea are burning to know the tales they have to tell, I have made this little collection-the men's own stories, told in the ward to other round-eyed youths who gathered about the bed to hear, full of eager questions, prompting when the story moved too slowly. ...Perhaps some day when it's all over, and we've licked the Hun to a standstill, I'll wander up there myself with our stony-faced guide; and perhaps I'll sit on the bank of our little lake and fish in the clear water with the tackle we all used, or shoot the same-sized rifle-and I'll have the satisfaction of knowing that they've trod every inch of the ground-it will be almost like having them there-but not quite-pals like that don't happen more than once in a lifetime-I wish I could tell you just what great sort of fellows they were-oh, well, I couldn't if I tried a thousand years-so what's the use?

Book Description
Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.

Book Description
Excerpt from Uncle Sam Abroad It is the opinion of Professor Loyal of the University of that the average American, to put it bluntly, knows little or nothing about Uncle Sam's foreign service. He is also of the opinion that the time is at hand when the aforesaid average American must know more about it, owing to the growth in importance of our foreign relations, both politically and commercially. Now if the good Professor could only work miracles he would take the dry details which he has in mind upon this subject, and make them as interesting as fiction.
