Excerpt from Take Me to France: A French Phrase Book for the American Soldier The author, having witnessed the difficulties encountered by the French Army at the beginning of the war for lack of under standing the English language, is prompted to give the American soldiers the results of his experiences by means of this booklet. It comprises the necessary elements of the daily field conversa tion of the franco-american Armies as well as guidance for those traveling in France. Twenty years of teaching have enabled the author to condense into a booklet of this size such grammatical rules as are indis pensable, and all the words and sentences necessary to fulfil its purpose. It is, then, a simple, brief guide which will be of great benefit to all, beginners as well as those having some knowledge of the language, who intend to visit France. C. M.
