One day, in 1915, American journalist PAUL FORTIER JONES saw a newspaper
article calling for men to assist in relief efforts in the far-flung
land of Serbia. He signed up that day and changed his life forever. With
Serbia into Exile is Jones's autobiography of his adventures. He worked
in Serbia during the First World War and recounts his harrowing escape
from the advancing armies as the Serbs were pushed toward the sea. Told
in a personal, conversational style, Jones makes the plight of the Serbs
a deeply affecting tale of suffering and hardship punctuated by moments
of tender human kindness. This firsthand account is a unique history
that students and scholars will find difficult to put down.
