Summary: "My Beloved Poilus" by Agnes Warner is a collection of personal letters written during the World War I era. The letters, penned by an American nurse working in a French hospital, provide intimate insights into her experiences caring for injured soldiers and the emotional struggles faced by the people living amidst the war. The narrative vividly captures the nurse’s dedication and the harsh realities of that tumultuous time. The opening portion of "My Beloved Poilus" introduces the author's compassionate journey as a nurse in France just before and during the Great War. Through her letters, we learn about the mobilization of men in her village and the nurse’s quick transition into aiding the Red Cross, where she teaches women to make medical supplies and prepares for incoming soldiers. The tone is earnest and heartfelt, reflecting both the harshness of the war environment and the personal stories of bravery and sacrifice among the villagers and soldiers alike. As she details her experiences in various locations, from Divonne-Les-Bains to Paris, her dedication shines through, addressing not only her daily observations but also the profound impact of war on humanity.
