The author was sent overseas by the War department to paint the portraits of the officers and distinguished soldiers at the American front. As a result he offers this book with 133 portraits and biographical sketches of the subjects. The other contents are the foreword by the author; a list of the army corps and division assignments; the thirteen major operations; and a description of the American military decorations.
“The portraits are spirited, varied, and alive with the characteristic traits of the American soldier. They constitute a fine and enduring achievement.”

“A glance through the book shows that, though there are many types among the picked manhood of America, a distinctively American type is evolving. It might be possible for an anatomist to define the special points in a characteristically American face with the help of such a collection of clever portraits as this.”
