Summary "The Boy Allies at Verdun; Or, Saving France from the Enemy" by Clair W. Hayes is a work of historical fiction written during the early 20th century, capturing the essence of World War I. The story centers around two American boys, Hal Paine and Chester Crawford, who find themselves embroiled in the critical battle of Verdun as they undertake a daring mission to deliver dispatches to General Petain. Alongside them is Anthony Stubbs, a war correspondent, whose humorous quips provide comic relief amid the harrowing backdrop of war. The opening of the story establishes a tense atmosphere leading up to the pivotal battle at Verdun, highlighting the urgency of their mission as they speed along in an automobile on the eve of the conflict. Hal, a youthful lieutenant, is determined to deliver crucial information about a German attack plan, while Chester's camaraderie livens the journey. Their banter depicts a friendship forged in adversity, and as they approach the front lines, readers are left aware of the impending chaos of war. The introduction effectively sets up an adventure filled with danger, bravery, and the complexities of youth amidst the harsh realities of battle. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
