| Summary | "The Note-Book of an Attaché: Seven Months in the War Zone" by Eric Fisher Wood is a historical account written in the early 20th century. The book offers a first-hand perspective on the early months of World War I, focusing on the author's role as Attaché at the American Embassy in Paris. Wood recounts his experiences and observations during a time of intense upheaval, providing insights into the chaos, emotions, and challenges faced by the people in the war zone. The opening of the book sets the stage for the unfolding drama of war beginning in 1914, detailing how the author was swept from his peaceful studies in architecture to the tumultuous environment of the American Embassy. Wood describes the immediate crisis encountered as German nationals sought refuge, and the challenges of managing panic and desperation amidst the complexities of diplomatic duties. He vividly captures the shifting moods in Paris, including the stark contrasts between the hopes for peace and the grim realities of impending conflict, as the city grapples with the abrupt transition from normalcy to the turmoil of war.
