| Summary | "John Brown: Confessions of a New Army Cadet" by R. W. Campbell is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story follows the experiences of John Brown, a newly inducted cadet at a military training school, as he transitions from civilian life to military discipline amidst the backdrop of World War I. Through his humorous and candid reflections, the book explores the challenges and absurdities of military training and the camaraderie among cadets. The opening of the book introduces John Brown, an ordinary name and character, as he arrives at Windmoor Cadet School to train as an officer during the war. Brown navigates the initial chaos of military life, meeting quirky fellow cadets and strict superiors, including the imposing Sergeant-Major Kneesup. His experiences are filled with both comical incidents, like being humorously tormented for his name, and moments of introspection about the rigors of army life, setting the tone for a narrative that promises both levity and deeper reflections on duty and camaraderie in turbulent times.
