Officer Harry Feversham leaves his military position right before
an important battle to the disappointment of his three closest
friends and the woman he loves. Appalled by his decision, they each
gift him with one striking symbol-a white feather. A young British
soldier, Harry Feversham, suddenly resigns from his post and leaves
his regiment. He is quickly overcome with shame as he receives four
feathers, which signify his cowardice. Three are from his peers
Captain Trench, Lieutenant Castleton and Lieutenant Willoughby, and
one is from his fiancee, Ethne Eustace. Driven by guilt, Harry
participates in various heroic acts to regain his honor and return
their feathers. The Four Feathers is one of A.E.W. Mason's most
famous works. It explores the unbearable weight of status and
reputation in a world driven by strict codes. It has been adapted
multiple times for television and film. The most notable version
was the 2002 feature starring Oscar-winner Heath Ledger as Harry.
With an eye-catching new cover, and professionally typeset
manuscript, this edition of The Four Feathers is both modern and
readable.
