Burke begins her narrative with a reflection on the philosophy of the French Poilu, who faces the war with stoic acceptance and humor. As she travels from Paris to Verdun, she encounters various aspects of life during wartime, from the camaraderie among soldiers to the innovative use of animals in the trenches. Burke describes the devastation left by the German retreat, the resilience of the French people, and the strategic importance of Verdun.
