Summary "My Year of the Great War" by Frederick Palmer is a historical account written in the early 20th century. The book offers a firsthand narrative of the early days of World War I, capturing the author's observations and experiences as an accredited American correspondent at the British front. It explores the complexities of human sacrifices, valor, and the impact of war on society, particularly focusing on the experiences of the soldiers and civilians involved in the conflict. The opening of the narrative establishes Palmer's perspective as deeply rooted in personal observation, offering readers insight into the political and military landscapes that led to the war. He reflects not only on the decisions of leaders and the motivations behind different nations' actions but also on the human emotions experienced amid the overwhelming chaos of war. The text discusses the varying efficiencies of armies, with particular attention to the Belgian defense and the spirit of the French and British soldiers. Through vivid descriptions and poignant anecdotes, Palmer sets the stage for a profound exploration of the Great War's realities, blending observations of military strategies with heartfelt accounts of individual bravery and loss.
