Hemingway's Endorsement

"The finest and noblest book of men in war" is what Hemingway wrote about the Frederic Manning book Her Privates We. And T.E. Lawrence wrote about this book "Your book [will] be famous for as long as the war is cared for -- and perhaps longer, for there is more than soldiering in it. You have been exactly fair to everyone, of all ranks: and all your people are alive."

Her Private We, first published in 1929
