Summary "The Lonely Warrior" by Claude C. Washburn is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story centers around Edward Carroll, his son Stacey, and their emotional conflicts during the backdrop of World War I. The book explores themes of duty, bravery, and the personal costs of war through the lens of familial relationships and societal expectations. At the start of the novel, we meet Edward Carroll, a successful businessman who engages in a poignant conversation with his son Stacey, who is determined to enlist for military service in the ongoing war. Despite Edward's fears for his son’s safety and his belief that the war may not directly involve Americans yet, Stacey argues passionately for the necessity of joining the fight. The opening segment highlights the generational clash in perceptions of duty and honor, with Stacey embodying a youthful idealism contrasted against his father's pragmatic concerns. Their dialogue reveals deep emotional undercurrents and foreshadows the personal struggles both will face as the broader conflict of the Great War looms over their lives.
