The Farewell to Arms by Ernest Hemingway tells the story of a US lieutenant, Frederic Henry, who served in the Italian army during World War I as an ambulance driver. The novel unfolds around his tragic passion for an English nurse. It is a romance of love and suffering, of loyalty and desertion.

The American Frederick Henry goes to Italy during the First World War, looking for work as a war correspondent, but ends up becoming an ambulance driver with the lieutenant's insignia. On the eve of an Italian offensive against the Austrian army, he meets English Red Cross aide Catherine Barkley and they fall in love. Henry is wounded in the ensuing battle and is taken to the American hospital in Milan.

Thanks to their Italian friends, the two meet again at the hospital and stay together during Henry's recovery. Catherine gets pregnant but does not want to get married. Henry is forced to return to his unit. He comes back in a difficult time, when the Germans can force the Italians to retreat (Battle of Caporetto). During the ensuing chaos, his official friend and doctor Alessandro Rinaldi is shot by the Italian soldiers themselves, which causes Henry to leave the army. He returns to Catherine and the two escape to Switzerland.

1. read the following excerpt from franklin d. roosevelt's "fireside chat 19":

on the other side of the picture, we must learn also to know that guerilla warfare against the germans in, let us say serbia or norway, us; that a successful russian offensive against the germans us; and that british successes on land or sea in any part of the world strengthen our hands.

remember always that germany and italy, regardless of any formal declaration of war, consider themselves at war with the united states at this moment just as much as they consider themselves at war with britain or russia. and germany puts all the other republics of the americas into the same category of enemies. the people of our sister republics of this hemisphere can be honored by that fact.  

the true goal we seek is far above and beyond the ugly field of battle. when we resort to force, as now we must, we are determined that this force shall be directed toward ultimate good as well as against immediate evil. we americans are not destroyers — we are builders.
