| 520 ## - SUMMARY, ETC. | |
| Summary, etc. | "Notes from Calais base, and pictures of its many activities by C. E. Montague" is an illustrated historical account written in the World War I era. It portrays the British Army’s base operations around Calais, focusing on how troops are trained, wounded soldiers are cared for, and vast logistical systems—fuel and footwear among them—keep the front supplied. The book first follows reinforcements through intensive finishing courses led by veterans fresh from the trenches: bayonet work, musketry, bombing, night exercises, sandbag-filling, Swedish drill, and rigorous gas-mask training, all captured alongside scenes of embarkation and movement. It then traces the wounded man’s journey from trench to advanced dressing-station, casualty clearing station, and base hospitals, highlighting innovations such as mono-rail trolley stretchers, specialist eye care with powerful magnets, fracture wards with slung beds, canal barges for gentle transport, and fully equipped Red Cross trains. Finally, it turns to the machinery of supply: depôts that manufacture, test, fill, and track petrol tins with French civilian labor; and a vast cobbler’s shop that sorts, rebuilds, and reissues thousands of boots daily through tightly organised, assembly-line repair—wasting nothing, even turning leather offcuts into laces and heels into fuel. Together the text and photographs offer a clear, practical portrait of the disciplined systems and human effort sustaining the army behind the lines. (This is an automatically generated summary.) |
