Tom Burke Of "Ours", Volume II
Produced by David Widger
"Tom Burke of 'Ours', Volume II" by Charles James Lever is a historical novel written in the mid-19th century. The story follows the adventures of a young officer, Lieutenant Tom Burke, during the Napoleonic Wars as he navigates both the chaos of battle and his personal relationships, particularly with a vivandiere named Minette. The opening chapters set the stage for a sweeping narrative of military life, highlighting themes of loyalty, ambition, and the human cost of war. At the start of the novel, Lieutenant Burke is recovering from an injury while observing a regiment of soldiers in disarray, which sparks his anxiety regarding the outcome of the ongoing campaign. As the story unfolds, we see Burke’s interactions with Minette, who appears preoccupied and emotionally distant, suggesting a deeper conflict between them. Their dynamic becomes complicated as they prepare for an impending march, each grappling with their feelings amidst the backdrop of military fervor and impending conflict. The tension is palpable, setting up a narrative full of adventure, emotional turmoil, and the specter of war's brutality. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
