First Edition. First English edition. Foxing to pages, and a bump to the spine. Good condition. ? **_Salonica and After_ by H. Collinson Owen** is a compelling firsthand account of the often-overlooked Macedonian front during World War I. Published in 1919, the book offers vivid reportage and personal reflections from Owen, a British war correspondent who witnessed the campaign unfold. ### ? Context and Themes - **The Macedonian Front**: Often dubbed a "sideshow," this theater of war involved Allied forces-including British, French, Serbian, and Greek troops-fighting against the Central Powers in the Balkans. Owen argues that this front played a decisive role in ending the war. - **Life in Salonica (Thessaloniki)**: Owen paints a rich portrait of the city as a hub of military logistics, espionage, and cultural collision. He captures the tension between the monotony of camp life and the bursts of action and intrigue. - **Victory and Memory**: The book emphasizes how soldiers, despite their disdain for the hardships of Salonica, came to associate it with triumph. Owen writes, "They may have loathed Salonica. But in their minds it stands for Victory. And they will not let it be forgotten". ### ? Publication and Legacy - **Original Release**: First published in 1919, the book was part of a wave of postwar memoirs that sought to document the emotional and strategic dimensions of the conflict. - **Modern Reprints**: It has been republished by Creative Media Partners and Legare Street Press, preserving its historical value for modern readers. - **Historical Significance**: Scholars consider it culturally important, offering insight into a lesser-known but strategically vital campaign. It's part of the public domain in the U.S., making it widely accessible.…
