In 1917 William Allen White of the Emporia Gazette and his friend Henry J. Allen of the Wichita Beacon, two short, fat, bald, middle-aged Kansans, sail for France as Red Cross observers. They dodge bombs, tour the front, journey to Italy, ponder the woman question and come home changed, all told with comic self-mockery.
A humorous yet moving first-hand view of the war from America’s best-loved small-town editor. Download the free EPUB.
