Catalogue synopsis
Project Gutenberg supplies this automated synopsis of the opening text:
"To the Front: A Sequel to Cadet Days" by Charles King is a historical novel written in the early 20th century. The story follows George Montrose Graham, a recent graduate of West Point, as he embarks on his military career against a backdrop of personal and national tensions. The novel explores themes of duty, honor, and the challenges faced by young officers as they transition from civilian life to military service. The opening of the book introduces a grand graduation day at West Point, where Cadet George Graham stands out among his peers as he receives his diploma. The narrative then shifts to his mother and other family members, who are both excited and anxious about his future as an army officer. As the cadets celebrate their achievements, an ominous telegram signals trouble in the mining community connected to George's father, setting the stage for Graham's immediate commitment to service and action. The plot hints at the challenges George will face as he confronts both external conflicts in the mining sector and the struggles of stepping into his new role as a lieutenant.
