Summary "Day by Day with the Russian Army, 1914-15" by Bernard Pares is a historical account written in the early 20th century. The book provides a firsthand perspective of the author's experiences as an official British observer with the Russian armies during World War I. It chronicles the complexities of the Russian military campaign in Galicia, detailing the socio-political dynamics and the conditions of the soldiers in the field, as well as their interactions with locals in the territories they occupied. The opening of this work introduces the author’s background and insights gained from years of interest in Russia, which positions him as an informed observer as the war begins. It sets the stage for his imminent journey to the front just weeks after the declaration of war. Pares describes his preparations, connections with prominent figures, and the enthusiasm of the Russian populace as they mobilize for conflict. Alongside his observations, he highlights the contrasts between the military advance, the socio-political ramifications, and the spirit of the soldiers and civilians, illustrating a nation at war and its implications for identity and sacrifice.
