Soldiers haunt the short stories of D. H. Lawrence, gathered here in a single collection. Drawing on his personal experiences in World War I, Lawrence captures the way nineteenth century ideals were shattered by the "war to end all wars." Ideas of masculinity, duty, and nationalism were profoundly transformed by the war that introduced air raids, tanks, trench warfare, poison gas, and widescale attacks on civilians. It gave us the term "shell shock" and not only were soldiers in shock in the war's aftermath, but European civilization itself seemed to be in its final days.

While best known for scandalous romances like Sons and Lovers, The Rainbow, and Lady Chatterly's Lover, Lawrence explores the dark side of heroism and nationalism in these masterful short stories.
