From the book's Introduction: This history of nine months in the trenches and a year ofslavery in the prison camps of Germany I dedicate to thememory of - The Late Lieut-Colonel A. E. Shaw Officer Commanding the First Canadian Mounted Rifles killed in action at the Battle of the Sanctuary Wood, June 1, 1916. and to the original members of the Battalion. By them,gallant soldiers and good comrades, he was loved andrespected as one of the finest soldiers who has gone toFrance - impartial in his judgment, fearless in his duty,kind to his horse, and considerate of his men, a gallantsoldier and a true gentleman. From the book's Foreward By Sir Sam Hughes, Lieut.-General "The Kaiser's Guest" is a very interesting book written byPrivate Frank C. MacDonald, No. 106,416, 1st Canadian Mounted Rifles, who was made a prisoner on June 2, 1916,at Sanctuary Wood, and who escaped from a GermanPrison Camp in Westphalia in 1917. Private MacDonald's story of his three attempts to regainhis freedom is full of startling revelations and thrilling experiences. He is a good type of the Canadian soldier,in courage, hopefulness, fearlessness, persistence, resourcefulness, and determination. - Sam HughesNo illustrations are included in this Kindle version.
