“If future generations desire to know what the British Regular officer was like at his best in the days of the War they will find some useful information in these pages. Brig.-General Maxwell—as he was when killed in actin.in September 1917—won the Victoria Cross in the African War, and officers of his regiment and brigade stated that he qualified for that greatest of all honours more than once in the Great War. His extraordinary personal bravery was matched by his chivalrous winning personality. “He was a King among men loved by everyone,” wrote his orderly to Mrs Maxwell after his death. His letters are racy, interesting, valuable. He was one of the comparatively rare men loved war, thinking what a great and glorious life it would be “if one had no ties and love to make one look behind, instead of in front.”“- Sir Cyril Falls.
