Solid hardcover.; Posthumously published memoir of Woodrow Wilson's Ambassador to France William Graves Sharp. Sharp was confirmed just before the outbreak of World War One, and arrived in Paris as the First Battle of the Marne saved the city from the advancing German army. Sharp remained in Paris throughout the war, his memoirs conveying his support for the French nation, and rejoicing when the United States entered the war.
