Os>«a i 1 - Over the Top 4> y - , tar By an American Soldier Who Want ARTHUR GUY EMPEY : w ■ m % When the Lusitania was sunk Arthur Guy Empey decided that he could not wait for hi* country to declare war —so he sailed without orders for England, and enlisted as a Canadian. He recounts this incident in "OVER THE TOP" in less than five hundred words In a few thousand more words he completes his experiences in England and after that hç is in France — for the greater part of the eighteen months before he was invalided home, in the Front Line Trenches." OVER THE TOP" is the first story by one of the American soldiers who went to France, has been a real com batant and has seen long service in the trenches. Sergeant Empey tells what it actually means and feels like : to be wounded seven times; to live for a year and a half with mud and rats and shells; to be covered with "cooties" and never to get rid of them; to go "over the top" in a charge; to grasp for your gas helmet when a second's delay mean's death; \tû m j . . m m. «• I I I The Greatest War Story Ever Written \ to capture a Prussian; to get tangled up in barb-wire with that machine gun working a few yards away; to lie for thirty-six hours wounded and unconscious in For a year and a half, until he fell wounded in "No Man's Land this American soldier saw more actual fighting and real warfare than any war correspondent who has written about the war. His experiences are grim, but they are thrilling, and lightened by a touch of humor as original as the Soldiers Three. And they are True. No Man's Land.
