This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.

Excerpt from The Seventh ChristmasThough she had remembered that it was Jesus' birthday, she was ashamed to own it, for she had no present for him and scarcely any food in the house. So, when the one child in Nazareth, the only child in all the world who knew that it was Christ mas, had awakened that morning, it had seemed to him that the world did not care. At first he was disap pointed; but when he saw the trouble in his mother's eyes, he sang to make her glad.

Letters from under the Guns Observation Posts, a special Leonaur book, brings together two books by Dawson concerning warfare as experienced by the men in the trenches during the First World War on the Western Front. 'Carry On' and its sequel 'Living Bayonets' are based on the author's time as an artillery officer and principally comprise his letters to his family. Dawson was an intelligent, thoughtful correspondent who in fine prose has left posterity an intimate 'gunner's' view of the Great War making this book an essential source work for students of the period. This good value 'two-in-one' Leonaur edition enables collectors to own these uncommon and related accounts in a single, value-for-money volume.Leonaur editions are newly typeset and are not facsimiles; each title is available in softcover and hardback with dustjacket.
The Glory of the Trenches is a war memoir by Coningsby Dawson, novelist and soldier of the Canadian Field Artillery. In 1914, Dawson went to Ottawa, and was offered a commission in the Canadian Field Artillery. In July 1916 he was selected, with twenty-four other officers, for immediate service in France. Lieutenant Coningsby Dawson joined the Canadian Expeditionary Force at the front in 1916, and continued in service until the end of World War I. He served in the Somme battlefield at Albert, at Thiepval, at Courcelette, and at the taking of the Regina trench. This book provides a remarkable insight in different aspects of war. It tells of the trench warfare and how it affected participants, but it also tells of the psychological consequences from the combat.
