Excerpt from Christopher: A Study in Human Personality
Who went, and who return not. - Say not so! 'tis not the grapes of Canaan that repay, But the high faith that failed not by the way; Virtue treads paths that end not in the grave.

Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book is a deeply personal memoir of a young man who loses his life in the First World War. He comes from the upper echelons of society, enjoying a mostly idyllic childhood surrounded by loving, well-to-do parents and siblings. The author was a close friend of the boy's father, and by extension, the family. As the author explores the boy's life through the shared experiences of his parents, their friends, and his own, the book delves into the tragic human cost of war. It is an exploration of genius lost, wasted on the horrors of a meaningless conflict, and a heartbreaking examination of the emotional toll wrought upon those left behind. However, there is also an examination of the intense love and bonds that tie people together in the face of tragedy and loss. The author presents the boy as an exemplary young man from a privileged background, but, equally, presents him as representative of countless others who died in service. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
