Description
A story of English life before and during the war. Michael Comber is the son of Lord Ashbridge and heir to the title. Family tradition requires that he enter the army, but finding the life distasteful, he resigns his commission after three years and goes to London to devote himself to music, his one great passion. Michael, who is awkward and ungainly and quite lacking in social graces, has never made friends, but in the musical circles to which he. now gains admittance, he becomes a new person. He grows particularly intimate with Hermann and Sylvia Falbe, two young German musicians. The friendship grows and his feeling for Sylvia deepens, but just as he learns that his love is returned, the war comes, shattering all international ties. Hermann and Michael separate to meet again face to face In the trenches, but Sylvia's love for Michael proves strong enough to survive even the tragedy that results from this meeting.
