| Summary | "True Stories of the Great War, Volume 2 (of 6)" by Francis Trevelyan Miller is a historical account written in the early 20th century. This collection compiles firsthand narratives and experiences from a wide array of individuals affected by World War I, such as soldiers, nurses, diplomats, and various eyewitnesses. The book aims to preserve and document personal stories that encapsulate the harrowing impacts and heroic deeds that characterized the war, showcasing diverse perspectives from both sides of the conflict. At the start of this volume, the narrative unfolds with an introduction to the contributors, highlighting the significance of individual stories during the war. For instance, the opening segment presents a vivid account of Edward Lyell Fox, an American journalist embedded with the German forces, as he reflects on his journey into Germany amidst the conflict. He describes the tension surrounding military inspections and the interaction with German soldiers, providing insights into both the logistical challenges of crossing into a war zone and the broader atmospheres of fear and uncertainty pervading the landscape. This introductory part sets the tone for the various stories that follow, each revealing the multifaceted experiences of those who lived through the Great War.
