Beschreibung

In "The Boy Allies on the Firing Line; Or, Twelve Days Battle Along the Marne," Clair W. Hayes crafts a gripping narrative set against the backdrop of World War I, merging adventure with historical detail. The novel follows two young protagonists, who become entangled in the tumultuous events surrounding the First Battle of the Marne. Hayes's vivid prose not only conveys the chaotic realities of war but also highlights the spirit of camaraderie and bravery among youth. The literary style is marked by dynamic action sequences and descriptive imagery, painting a stark contrast between the innocence of adolescence and the brutalities of combat, reflective of the serialized adventure stories popular in early 20th-century American literature. Clair W. Hayes, a writer deeply influenced by the global conflicts of his time, sought to embolden and inspire a youth readership. His narrative is a reflection of the era'Äôs ethos, wherein tales of heroism and patriotism were essential in fostering a sense of duty among the younger generation. This work stands as a testament to the aspirations of a war-weary populace, eager for tales of valor amidst despair. This book is highly recommended for readers interested in historical fiction that engages with themes of friendship and bravery in the face of adversity. "The Boy Allies on the Firing Line" not only entertains but also serves as a formative exploration of youth identity during one of history's most harrowing moments.

    Milly wants to win a medal for Irish dancing, just like her neighbour Abbie Horgan. But Irish dancing takes talent, and Milly's skills are in short supply. No matter – a second-hand wig, a fancy frock and a pair of poodle socks ensure she at least looks the part.

    From sick students to sprained ankles, it's quite the performance from Milly and co. The feis is turning into a fiasco …  and they'll be lucky to get home in one piece, let alone with any medals!
