Harrison's first novel, originally serialized between 1928-29 in The New Masses, and an international best seller in its time. Narrated by a young Canadian enlisted man, it relays his unvarnished account of World War I in France, and his revolutionary sentiments born in the midst of trench warfare, heavy losses, and ranking officers with little regard to the men they command.
