Our copy is enriched with handwritten annotations Henri Beraud very critical of Albert Thibaudet, in pencil in the margins of the first eight pages of text.
They begin like this: "This good teacher should learn to write as well as a policeman ..."
It seems that reading this volume is too exasperated Henri Beraud to accept to write more.

Signed autograph Albert Thibaudet Robert Garric.
Catholic reformist, he was the founder of "social Teams" in 1920, which aimed to establish a social elite and bring the good word about the brotherhood born of the trenches to the workers, in the tradition of patronage. Simone de Beauvoir, then student of Robert Garric in philosophy at Sainte-Marie Institute of Neuilly, remembers him in his "Memoirs of a Tidy Wench" "Garric appeared; I forgot everything else and myself; the authority of his voice subdued me. In twenty years we he explained, he had discovered in the trenches the joys of camaraderie that removed social barriers. [...] To deny all limits and all separations, get out of my class, out of my skin: this slogan electrified me. [...] Must serve my life! Must serve all my life! "
