Four Weeks in the Trenches recounts the experiences of one of the greatest violinists of all time when he fought in World War I as an Austrian soldier. Fritz Kreisler briefly served in the Austrian Army in World War I before being honorably discharged after he was wounded. He spent the remaining years of the war in America. He returned to Europe in 1924, living first in Berlin, then moving to France in 1938. Shortly thereafter, at the outbreak of World War II, he settled once again in the United States, becoming a naturalized citizen in 1943. In civilian life, Fritz Kreisler was a violin virtuoso and orchestral composer. One of the most famous violin masters of his day, he was known for his sweet tone and expressive phrasing. His extraordinary talent manifested itself when he was only 4, and it was carefully fostered by his father. Fritz Kreisler's brilliant technique was ably matched by his remarkable tone, both of which he always placed in the service of the composer. Four Weeks in the Trenches is an interesting read, providing fascinating insights in what it was like to be a soldier during World War I.
