The Countryside Devastated The aspect of the villages is sad enough, but the countryside is worse. I have seen so much of artillery destruc- tion during this war that I confess I have been rather sated with ruins. A de- stroyed church, a house ripped clean to its foundations, is only another example of what I have seen dozens of times be- fore. But a countryside that has so little left of it as that one I passed through is a sight that made me want to cry and fight at the same time. It has already been reported how orchards have been destroyed. prev     next
