"Over There with the Marines at Chateau Thierry" by G. Harvey Ralphson is a historical account written in the early 20th century." The narrative captures the experiences of American Marines during World War I, specifically focusing on their involvement in the significant battle at Chateau Thierry in France. The book delves into themes of friendship, bravery, and the harsh realities of war, following key characters Phil Speed and Timothy Turner as they navigate the challenges and dangers of combat. "At the start of the book, we meet Top Sergeant Phil Speed and Corporal Timothy Turner, who are part of a battalion of American Marines preparing to face combat in France." The marines, filled with patriotic zeal, reflect on their past celebrations and the grimmer reality of battle that looms ahead.
