Catalogue synopsis
Project Gutenberg supplies this automated synopsis of the opening text:
"The Great War in England in 1897" by William Le Queux is an invasion novel published in 1894. Britain faces a devastating assault by French and Russian forces who advance deep into English territory. As patriots fight desperately against the invaders, an unexpected ally emerges that could turn the tide of war. This early example of invasion literature captivated Victorian readers with its shocking scenario of European powers locked in combat—a vision that would prove eerily prophetic, though with alliances reversed, two decades later.
