Our patriotic young men, in the morning of life, selected because of their personal prowess and patriotic devotion, going to the front to find perhaps a soldier's grave or a sailor's rest in the grim old ocean or to return broken and maimed to carry the red badge of sacrifice throughout their remaining years. This typifies the highest level of patriotism, the highest plane of devotion to one's country. The country calls upon the treasures of youth - which are strength, courage, brain and brawn - and calls upon the equally important treasures of thrift, the accumulation of labor and adventure. We are to consider the less heroic but none the less import ant financial aspect of the war. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
