- Résumé : "The Camp Fire Girls on the Field of Honor" by Margaret Vandercook follows a group of young American women, members of the Camp Fire Girls organization, as they embark on a mission to France during World War I. The narrative begins with Vera Lagerloff, a member of the Camp Fire Girls, preparing for the journey in New York City. The group, led by Mrs. Richard Burton, plans to assist in the reclamation work in the devastated areas of France and to introduce the Camp Fire movement to French girls. The story highlights the challenges and responsibilities the girls face as they prepare for their mission, including the unexpected addition of Miss Patricia Lord, a formidable and wealthy woman who insists on accompanying them to provide guidance and support. As the group sails across the Atlantic, they encounter various characters, including a French senator, Monsieur Duval, who offers insights into the French perspective on the war and the role of women. The voyage is marked by moments of tension, such as the threat of submarines and an incident involving a young French girl from the Red Cross unit. Throughout the journey, the girls grapple with their own fears and aspirations, seeking to contribute meaningfully to the war effort while navigating the complexities of international relations and personal growth. The novel explores themes of courage, service, and the transformative power of shared experiences in times of crisis. It underscores the importance of cross-cultural understanding and the potential for young women to make a significant difference in a world at war. Through their journey, the Camp Fire Girls embody the spirit of cooperation and resilience, striving to build bridges between nations and generations.
