The book traces the journey of an English soldier who deserts the war and comes across two young girls in the French countryside, Marcelle and Coco.

Edward Page Mitchell: Edward Page Mitchell (1852–1927) was an American editorial and short story writer for "The Sun", a daily newspaper in New York City.  He became that newspaper's editor in 1897, succeeding Charles Anderson Dana.  Mitchell was recognized as a major figure in the early development of the science fiction genre.  Mitchell wrote fiction about a man rendered invisible by scientific means ("The Crystal Man", published in 1881) before H.G. Wells's "The Invisible Man", wrote about a time-travel machine ("The Clock that Went Backward") before Wells's "The Time Machine", wrote about faster-than-light travel ("The Tachypomp"; now perhaps his best-known work) in 1874, a thinking computer and a cyborg in 1879 ("The Ablest Man in the World"), and also wrote the earliest known stories about matter transmission or teleportation ("The Man without a Body", 1877) and a superior mutant ("Old Squids and Little Speller").

The Crucified Soldier: The Crucified Soldier refers to the widespread atrocity propaganda story of an Allied soldier serving in the Canadian Corps who may have been crucified with bayonets on a barn door or a tree, while fighting on the Western Front during World War I.  Three witnesses said they saw an unidentified crucified Canadian soldier near the battlefield of Ypres, Belgium on or around 24 April 1915, but there was no conclusive proof such a crucifixion actually occurred.  The eyewitness accounts were somewhat contradictory, no crucified body was found, and no knowledge was uncovered at the time about the identity of the supposedly crucified soldier.  During World War II the story was used by the Nazis as an example of British propaganda.
