Beskrivelse af Under Fire (1895)
Under Fire is a novel written by Charles King, first published in 1895. The story is set in the late 1800s and follows the life of a young lieutenant named Dick Prescott, who is stationed with his regiment in the American West. The novel explores themes of military life, honor, and duty as Prescott and his fellow soldiers navigate the challenges of frontier warfare.As the story unfolds, Prescott and his comrades find themselves in the midst of a conflict with Native American tribes who are resisting the encroachment of white settlers on their land. The soldiers are forced to deal with harsh conditions, including extreme weather, scarce supplies, and constant danger from their enemies.Throughout the novel, Prescott struggles with his own sense of duty and honor, as well as his growing feelings for a young woman named Nellie. As the conflict with the Native Americans intensifies, Prescott is forced to make difficult decisions that will impact not only his own life but also the lives of his fellow soldiers and the people they are fighting to protect.Under Fire is a gripping and poignant story that offers a vivid portrait of life on the American frontier and the challenges faced by those who served in the military during this tumultuous period in American history. It is a timeless tale of courage, sacrifice, and the human spirit that will resonate with readers of all ages.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
