Life of Lord Kitchener, Volume 3

In this sweeping 1920 biography of Horatio Herbert Kitchener, better known as Lord Kitchener, Sir George Arthur shines a bright light on the British military leader and statesman who, during World War I, organized armies on an unprecedented scale and became famous as the face on British recruitment posters. Volume III finds Lord Kitchener being appointed Secretary of State for War as World War I looms, and documents his many campaigns and recruitment efforts up until his dramatic death at sea in 1916. Written only four years after his death, this valuable historical account by a friend and contemporary offers a look behind the handlebar mustache and pointing finger of the man whose "Your country needs YOU" posters later inspired those of the United States during World War II. British writer SIR GEORGE ARTHUR (1860-1946) also wrote A Septuagenarian's Scrapbook and Not Worth Reading.Arthur, George Compton Archibald is the author of 'Life of Lord Kitchener, Volume 3', published 2007 under ISBN 9781602062658 and ISBN 160206265X.
