A Surgeon In Arms

by Robert James MANION (1881 - 1943)

Ch 19 Leave; Ch 20 Paris During The War

Robert James Manion (1881-1943) was a Canadian doctor who volunteered in the Canadian medical corps during World War I. This book is his memoir of the war. After the war he entered politics and served in several Canadian governments. The listener may note a lack of mention of the United States soldier; this is because the memoir was written before the entry of that country into the war. - Summary by David Wales
