Over There is a novel written by Arnold Bennett, first published in 1915. The story is set during the early years of World War I and follows the experiences of a group of British civilians who travel to France to support the war effort. The main character, George Cannon, is a successful businessman who volunteers to work for the British government in France. Along with his wife, daughter, and son-in-law, George travels to France and becomes involved in the war effort, working alongside soldiers and other civilians to provide support and supplies to the troops. The novel explores the impact of war on ordinary people, as well as the challenges and sacrifices that come with serving one's country. It also delves into themes of patriotism, duty, and the human cost of conflict. Over There is a powerful and thought-provoking novel that offers a unique perspective on the early years of World War I.You should imagine a large plain, but not an empty plain, nor a plain entirely without hills. There are a few hills, including at least one very fine eminence (an agreeable old town on the top), with excellent views of the expanse. The expanse is considerably diversified. In the first place it is very well wooded; in the second place it is very well cultivated; and in the third place it is by no means uninhabited. Villages abound in it; and small market towns are not far off each other. These places are connected by plenty of roads (often paved) and canals, and by quite an average mileage of railways.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
