| Summary | "The New Army in Training" by Rudyard Kipling is a historical account written during the early 20th century, specifically in the context of World War I and its early developments. This work presents an insightful look into the British Army's recruitment and training processes, capturing the spirit and determination of new recruits who are eager to serve their country. The book discusses various battalions, their backgrounds, and the rigorous training they undergo, highlighting both the innocence and resolve of these new soldiers. In this text, Kipling takes readers on a journey through different camps, introducing the diverse backgrounds of the recruits—from miners and factory workers to Canadian contingents and Indian troops. He captures the camaraderie, humor, and challenges faced by these men as they adapt to military life. Emphasizing their innocence and sincere motivation, Kipling draws a portrait of a nation in flux, demonstrating how the war effort is shaping ordinary civilians into soldiers with purpose and discipline. The narrative is rich with observations about the interactions between officers and men, the evolution of various battalions, and the collective desire to fulfill their duty amid the seriousness of wartime.
