It will try simply to tell of a generation of men who, even though they may have escaped its shells, were destroyed by the war.  \nALL QUIET ON THE WESTERN FRONT  \nONE  \nWe are at rest five miles behind the front. Yesterday we were relieved, and now our bellies are full of beef and haricot beans. We are satisfied and at peace. Each man has another mess-tin full for the evening; and, what is more, there is a double ration of sausage and bread. That puts a man in fine trim. We have not had such luck as this for a long time. The cook with his carroty head is begging us to eat; he beckons with his ladle to every one that passes, and spoons him out a great dollop. He does not see how he can empty his stew-pot in time for coffee. Tjaden and Müller have produced two washbasins and had them filled up to the brimas a reserve. In Tjaden this is voracity, in Müller it is foresight. Where Tjaden puts it all is a mystery, for he is and always will be as thin as a rake. What's more important still is the issue of a double ration of smokes. Ten cigars, twenty cigarettes, and two quids of chew per man; now that is decent. I have exchanged my chewing tobacco with Katczinsky for his cigarettes, which  \nErich Maria Remarque  \nmeans I have forty altogether. That's enough fora day.  \nIt is true we have no right to this windfall. The Prussian is not so generous. We have only amiscalculation to thank for it.  \nFourteen days ago we had to go up and relieve the front line. It was fairly quiet on our sector, so the quartermaster who remained in the rear had requisitioned the usual quantity of rations and provided for the full company of one hundred and fifty men. But on the last day an astonishing number of English heavies opened up on us with high-explosive, drumming ceaselessly on our position, so that we suffered severely and came back only eighty strong.  \nLast night we moved back and settled down to get a good sleep for once: Katczinsky is right when he says it would not be such a bad war if only one could get a little more sleep. In the line we have had next to none, and fourteen days is a long time at one stretch.  \nIt was noon before the first of us crawled out of our quarters. Half an hour later every man had his mess-tin and we gathered at the cookhouse, which smelt greasy and nourishing. At the head of the queue of course were the hungriest--little Albert Kropp, the clearest thinker among us and therefore only a lance-corporal; Müller, who still carries his school textbooks with him, dreams of examinations, and during a bombardment mutters propositions in physics; Leer, who","cbCaioeA5Fjfjsrf","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaioeA5Fjfjsrf","pdf",770791,280,"English","# Prologue\n# One\n# Two\n# Three\n# Four\n# Five\n# Six\n# Seven\n# Eight\n# Nine\n# Ten\n# Eleven\n# Twelve","[{\"question\":\"What does the Prologue say about the book’s purpose?\",\"answer\":\"It states the work is neither an accusation nor a confession, and not an adventure, but an account of how a generation of men is destroyed by war even when they escape its shells.\"},{\"question\":\"Where are the soldiers at the start of “ONE”?\",\"answer\":\"They are five miles behind the front, recently relieved, with full bellies and a sense of temporary peace.\"},{\"question\":\"What events changed the soldiers’ situation “fourteen days ago”?\",\"answer\":\"They had to relieve the front line, but heavy English bombardment struck their sector with high-explosive fire, reducing their group from a larger number to eighty strong.\"}]","All Quiet on the Western Front - Prologue | PDF",1792214992,431]
