Overview

"With The Immortal Seventh Division" by Edmund John Kennedy is a historical account written in the early 20th century. The book chronicles the experiences of the author's journey with the Seventh Division of the British Expeditionary Force during World War I. It specifically highlights the role and challenges faced by the division in the early days of the war, including their interactions with both fellow soldiers and the local Belgian populace. The opening of the account presents the urgency and preparation involved as the author, a chaplain major, receives his orders to join the Seventh Division. He describes the atmosphere at the Bustard's Camp and the mixed feelings of anticipation and anxiety that accompany the call to serve. As he embarks on this new chapter, the narrative showcases vivid imagery of troop movements, the camaraderie of soldiers, and the bureaucratic processes of mobilization against the backdrop of an impending conflict. Kennedy's reflective tone hints at the deep emotional and spiritual dimensions of his experience even before reaching the front lines, setting the stage for a profound exploration of life in combat and service as a chaplain amidst war.
