Soldiers Berserk

"Soldiers Berserk" by Kitsy Bouchard, in French, 1912, Éditions CCS Frequel, Carcassonne, Aude, Calabria, Hardcover, 284 pages, no graphics.
I read and reviewed this volume when cataloging and creating an inventory of the books found as part of the "The Evart-Gunn Publishing Company Book Salvage Operation" (see first entry of this blog).
This book is exactly what a book should NOT be. Messy, incoherent, aimlessly starting ideas and not following up on them, starting others and leaving them hanging.
A mystery for me is how an editor recommended and a publisher approved this to make it to print.
