The story unfolds around the lives of newlyweds Harold Manning and Helen Brandon as they navigate the complexities of military life in the early 19th century, particularly focusing on their journey to Canada and the challenges they face as a young couple in a war-torn context. The narrative likely explores themes of love, duty, and the harsh realities of life as a soldier and his wife. The opening of the novel presents a wedding scene in a quaint chapel, signaling the beginning of Harold and Helen's life together. As they emerge into the foggy streets of London, their blissful moment contrasts sharply with the societal expectations and military rules that lie ahead. Harold grapples with the potential obstacles posed by his commanding officer, Sir George Head, regarding Helen's desire to accompany him to Canada. This tension sets up the early conflict of the story as Helen expresses her determination to stand by her husband amidst the uncertainties of military duty and the harsh conditions they will face on their impending journey. The foundation is thus laid for a tale of resilience and adventure during a pivotal time in history. (This is an automatically generated summary.) Reading ease score: 82.0 (6th grade).
