"Like Another Helen" by George Horton is a historical novel written in the late 19th century. The narrative unfolds during a time of tumultuous conflict in Crete, capturing the youthful enthusiasm of its central character, John Curtis, as he embarks on an adventure that intertwines themes of war, liberty, and personal discovery. The story introduces various characters, including young Cretan fighters and foreign enthusiasts, all drawn by a shared cause against oppression. The opening of the book sets the stage with a caique secretly delivering weapons to the insurgents in Crete during a period of rising rebellion. Amidst the excitement of the impending conflict, we meet John Curtis, who, inspired by his surroundings and the passionate fervor of the locals, decides to immerse himself in the events unfolding in Crete. He forms connections with characters such as Lieutenant Peter Lindbohm and Michali Papadakes, both of whom share a commitment to the Cretan cause. The narrative expresses the thrill and danger they encounter as they navigate through a blend of camaraderie and national pride, establishing a foundation for the adventures that lie ahead.
