The brochure in the envelope variant "On beige base title plate and edge strip in Ocker with stylized representation of 15 creeping shrapnels. Author's name and title in black. A blue ribbon, running from the middle of the lower book edge to the lower third of the right book edge, bears the silver inscription GIBRALTAR" (Des Coudres-Mühleisen). In the form of a diary, the war experiences of Disciples on the Western Front from January 1915 to August 1918 are described in a simple, concise and completely sober style. "There are hardly any reflections in the book on political backgrounds, on the meaning or justification of war, which is called 'part of a Creatorial life' (K. O. Paetel) and how a natural phenomenon is accepted" (KLL 11, 4836). – Title with two name entries (Hegeling, Eugen Köhler). A bit tanned due to paper, a layer tied out in the middle. Front inner joint behind the title indisputably reinforced, the rear joint sprung up there. The brochure with traces of use and completely lay-back deposited.
