Barlasch of the Guard is a novel written by Henry Seton Merriman and published in 1903. The story follows the life of Barlasch, a soldier in the French army who has been wounded in battle and left behind by his comrades. He is taken in by a young girl named Colette and her mother, who nurse him back to health. Barlasch becomes a loyal servant to the family and helps them in their daily tasks. However, his past catches up with him when he is called back to the army to serve in the Franco-Prussian War. The novel explores themes of loyalty, love, and sacrifice as Barlasch must choose between his duty to his country and his loyalty to the family who has shown him kindness.
