| Summary | "Fighting with French: A Tale of the New Army" by Herbert Strang is a historical novel written in the early 20th century. Set during the time of World War I, the story focuses on the experiences of young recruits such as Kenneth Amory and Harry Randall as they enlist in the British Army and prepare to face the challenges of war. The narrative delves into themes of patriotism, camaraderie, and the impacts of conflict on individuals and society. The opening of the tale introduces Kenneth Amory, a young man recovering from illness and contemplating enlistment in the army. He meets his impulsive old friend, Harry Randall, who has just returned from Canada to join the fight against the Germans. Their interactions convey a sense of urgency and determination as Randall encourages Amory to enlist with him and their former schoolmates. Strang sets the stage for the emotional and moral dilemmas faced by these young men, revealing the complex motivations behind their willingness to fight for their country as they navigate personal relationships and their roles within the New Army.
