Summary "Captain Lucy in France" by Aline Havard is a historical novel written in the early 20th century, specifically after World War I. The story centers around Lucy Gordon, a young American whose family is deeply involved in the war effort. The narrative captures her journey to France, where she strives to contribute to the Allied cause while coping with the absence and dangers faced by her loved ones, including her father and brother. The opening portion of the book introduces Lucy in May 1918, working on a farm in England with two friends while they labor to support the war effort. She reflects on her family’s recent upheavals: her father serving at the front and her brother's return from captivity. As she navigates her thoughts, she expresses her desire to be closer to her family, leading to her decision to travel to France alongside her mother, who is serving as a nurse. The chapter sets the tone for Lucy's resilience and determination amidst the backdrop of war, hinting at her adventures and challenges ahead as she strives to assist her loved ones and support the war effort.
