 squo\;s 1914\, and World War I is ceaselessly churning through thousands o
 f young men on both sides of the fight. The violence of the front feels fa
 r away to Henry Gaunt\, Sidney Ellwood and the rest of their classmates\, 
 safely ensconced in their idyllic boarding school in the English countrysi
 de. News of the heroic deaths of their friends only makes the war more exc
 iting.</p>\n<p>Gaunt\, half German\, is busy fighting his own private batt
 le&mdash\;an all-consuming infatuation with his best friend\, the glamorou
 s\, charming Ellwood&mdash\;without a clue that Ellwood is pining for him 
 in return. When Gaunt's family asks him to enlist to forestall the anti-Ge
 rman sentiment they face\, Gaunt does so immediately\, relieved to escape 
 his overwhelming feelings for Ellwood. To Gaunt's horror\, Ellwood rushes 
 to join him at the front\, and the rest of their classmates soon follow. N
 ow death surrounds them in all its grim reality\, often inches away\, and 
 no one knows who will be next.</p>\nhttps://lacountylibrary.libnet.info/ev
