The intellect of Binding is awe-inspiring. One of those great educated men of the 19th century going into the 20th with nothing but his wits and his razor-sharp mind. He is so incredibly 'in-the-know', able to analyze with precision and grace the most minute experiences of the staff officer and greater politics as a whole. I found, as he often highlights forms of media he is consuming knowledge (Under Fire by Henri Barbusse, or Douglas Haig's report on the First Battle of the Somme) I was inclined, in part, or -- as in the case of Haig's dispatch -- to read said media in full as to understand Binding's critiques and praises. Great book, though as I usually find with diaries, it was hard to get through some times.
