| Summary | "The Boy Volunteers with the French Airmen" by Kenneth Ward is a fictional novel likely written in the early 20th century. The story follows two American boys, Ralph and Alfred, who, during World War I, find themselves caught in the conflicts of Belgium and France. Inspired by their experiences on the battlefield and the sight of airplanes, they aspire to join the flying corps and partake in aviation adventures amidst the turmoil of war. The opening of the book introduces Ralph and Alfred as they navigate the chaos in Antwerp during the early days of World War I. The boys are drawn to the excitement of war and the world of aviation after witnessing a Zeppelin overhead. They encounter various challenges, like being stranded in a foreign city without money and attempting to reconnect with their families. As they integrate into the army and eventually join the flying corps, they experience heroism and danger firsthand, saving downed aviators while dealing with the realities of war. Their journey encapsulates themes of adventure, bravery, and the longing for purpose amid conflict. (This is an automatically generated summary.) |
