ABOUT THE BOOK: The Khaki Boys at the Front; or, Shoulder to Shoulder in the Trenches, #1 in the Khaki Boys series -- "The Khaki Boys reach France, and, after some intensive training in sound of the battle front, are sent into the trenches. In the raids across No-Man's land, they have numerous tragic adventures that show what great work is being performed by our soldiers. It shows what makes heroes." -- 1918, Cupples & Leon.
ABOUT THE SERIES: This World War I series was published by Cupples & Leon in 1918-20. While authorship of the series is generally attributed to Josephine Chase (using the pseudonym Capt. Gordon Bates), the last three books were written by Howard Garis from Stratemeyer outlines, according to James Keeline . The series follows the adventures of four American boys -- wealthy Jimmy Blaise, who defers enrollment at Harvard to enlist; orphaned factory worker Roger Barlow; cub reporter Bob Dalton; and Polish laborer Ingace Pulinski -- from training camp through the end of the war.
