The narrative focuses on the infamous retreat of the British Expeditionary Force from Mons in August 1914, highlighting the contrasting actions of two colonels, Elkington and Mainwaring, who attempted to surrender. John Hutton vividly portrays the chaos and psychological toll of the retreat on soldiers. Elkington's journey of redemption is particularly compelling; after joining the French Foreign Legion, he fought bravely, sustained serious injuries, and ultimately earned reinstatement by King George V, showcasing resilience amid the horrors of war.
