A Soldier of the Legion is a memoir written by C. N. Williamson, a British soldier who served in the French Foreign Legion during World War I. The book chronicles Williamson's experiences from his enlistment in 1914 to his discharge in 1919. It provides a vivid account of life in the Legion, including the brutal training, the camaraderie among soldiers, and the horrors of trench warfare. Williamson also writes about his personal experiences, including his love affair with a French woman and his struggle with the decision to leave the Legion. Overall, A Soldier of the Legion is a compelling and moving account of one man's journey through war and his search for meaning and purpose in life.1914. The book begins: It was the great ball of the season at Fort Ellsworth. For a special reason it had begun unusually late; but, though the eighth dance was on, the great event of the evening had not happened yet. Until that should happen, the rest, charming though it might be, was a mere curtain-raiser to keep men amused before the first act of the play.
