Burnet, Etienne | La Tour blanche | Flammarion, 1921 | Bien que cet ouvrage soit résolument autobiographique, l'auteur ne laisse rien deviner de lui-même, et on en est réduit à des conjectures. Il est médecin, semble d'âge mûr (une cinquantaine d'années ?) et a participé à la campagne de France en 1914-1915.

Si les affectations de l'auteur restent vagues (Il est à l'Hôpital 75 de Salonique en mai 1917), les lieux sont indiqués assez précisément. | France: personal narrative; doctor |
