Summary: "The Khaki Boys at the Front; or, Shoulder to Shoulder in the Trenches" by Capt. Gordon Bates is a historical fiction work written in the early 20th century. The story follows the adventures of a group of American soldiers known as the "Khaki Boys," particularly focusing on five young men who call themselves the "Brothers" as they transition from training in France to the realities of trench warfare during World War I. The narrative highlights their camaraderie, experiences, and the challenges they face as they prepare to confront the enemy. At the start of the novel, the Khaki Boys are enjoying a brief visit to Paris after their extensive training. They savor the sights and excitement of the city while reflecting on the war and their imminent deployment. The opening portion establishes their close-knit bond and introduces them to the character Cousin Emile, a distinguished aviator. The narrative shifts dramatically when they encounter an assassination attempt on their group, which foreshadows the impending dangers of war that await them. As the story unfolds, the paradoxical nature of enjoying life and observing the grim realities of conflict becomes increasingly evident. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
