12 November 1916



Walked along Cowes front.

Books read:
Derelicts WJ Locke
Stella Maris ditto
The first 100,00 Ian Hay
The Blue Horizon  De Vere Stacpoole

Two ore WJ Locke books and then some variety!
The First 100,000 is a fictional (although only barely) account of a soldier's experience in a Scottish regiment from subscription in 1914 through to The Battle of Loos. In many respets it would have been exactly what Louis experienced.

The Blue Horizon is a fictional account of a shipwreck in the South Seas from the same author who later wrote The Blue Lagoon.
