Description

Overview: In 1914 a group of young Americans found the only way they could volunteer to help defend France was to enlist in the Foreign Legion. This is the classic work on American Volunteers in the French Foreign Legion in the First World War. Written twelve years after the war by one of the original volunteers, it chronicles those Americans who joined the Legion to fight for France in 1914 and later. It also covers the men who transferred from the Legion to the Regular French Army, The Lafayette Escadrille, and to the American Army in 1917. It also provides a brief description of what the survivors did after the war. This remains THE book on this subject.
