The Four Feathers
A.E.W. Mason
“Three white feathers, three separate accusations of cowardice”
Written in 1902, the book takes place in 1882 during The Mahdist War. A British junior officer resigns his commission on the eve of his regiment's deployment to the Sudan, fearing he lacks the courage for what is asked. Branded a coward, he receives four white feathers. One from each of three friends and his fiancée as symbols of disgrace. A tale of inner conflict, adventure, and heroism amid colonial conflict.
