Summary: "The Red Horizon" by Patrick MacGill is a novel written during the early 20th century. The story follows a group of soldiers from the London Irish regiment as they embark on their journey to the trenches of World War I. The narrative delves into their experiences, fears, and the camaraderie built amid the chaos of war. At the start of the novel, we are introduced to the main character and his comrades as they leave Southampton on a troopship bound for France. The atmosphere is filled with a mix of excitement and apprehension as they contemplate the realities of warfare. Through vivid imagery, the soldiers share their light-hearted banter to mask their anxiety, while also grappling with the gravity of their mission.
