This book, by an officer of the ‘‘Jocks,” gives one of the most vivid pictures that have yet been written of the life of a modern soldier.
“Behind the rattle and patter (always very shrewd and shrewdly expressed) is a delicacy and chivalry of attitude which makes these letters extremely attractive, and compels for their writer our great respect.”—Morning Post.

Khaki Courage is that unexpected heroism which people develop within themselves when their men have marched into the battle smoke.
“John Lane has done one of the big things of his life in publishing ‘Khaki Courage.’ One puts the book down with a feeling of reverence and of envy that we, his readers, are not permitted to share the soldier’s disregard for death.”—Sunday Herald.

‘‘A book of war sketches written with great insight and humour. They have Egypt and the desert as a background instead of France and Flanders, and are thus specially interesting as being among the first stories dealing with that theatre of war.’’—Spectator.
