Edited by HIS PARENTS. 

 i vol. Demy 8vo. IDS. 6d. net. 



A series of charming sketches by a young New Zealander, who 

 died in December, 1917, on the threshold of a brilliant literary 

 career. Noel Ross was one of those daring Anzacs who made 

 the landing on Gallipoli. Wounded in the early days of the 

 terrible fighting there, he was discharged from the Army, came 

 to London, rejoined there, and obtained a commission in the 

 Royal Field Artillery. Afterwards he became a valued member 

 of the Editorial' Staff of The Times, on which his genius was at 

 once recognized and highly appreciated. Much of his work 

 appeared in The Times, and he was also a contributor to Punch. 

 In collaboration with his fathqr, Captain Malcolm Ross, the New 

 Zealand War Correspondent, he was the author of " Light and 

 Shade in War," of which the Daily Mail said : "It is full of 

 Anzac virility, full of Anzac buoyancy, and surcharged with that 

 devil-may-care humour that has so astounded us jaded peoples 

 of an older world." 



His writings attracted the attention of such capable writers 

 as Rudyard Kipling, and Sir Ian Hamilton, who said he reminded 

 him in many ways of that gallant and brilliant young Englishman, 

 Rupert Brooke.

 countrymen were transferred to the eternal credit of Switzer- 

 land from the harsh conditions of captivity to a neutral soil, 

 there to live in comparative freedom amid friendly surroundings. 

 He describes in some detail the initiative taken by the Swiss 

 Government on behalf of the Prisoners of War in general, and 

 the negociations which preceded the acceptance by the Belligerent 

 States of the principle of Internment, and then recounts the 

 measures taken by that Government for the hospitalization of
