Overview
One Hundred Percent: The Story Of A Patriot is a novel by Sinclair, Upton that tells the story of Peter Gudge, a young man who is determined to be a patriotic American. He joins the army and is sent to fight in Europe during World War I. Throughout the novel, Gudge's patriotism is tested as he witnesses the horrors of war and becomes disillusioned with the government's handling of the conflict. Despite his doubts, Gudge remains committed to his country and continues to fight for what he believes is right. The novel explores themes of patriotism, war, and the human condition. It is a powerful and thought-provoking work that offers a unique perspective on the American experience during a turbulent period in history.Also he had a bit of genuine anxiety. He had told the truth when he said to Guffey that he didn't know what a ""Red"" was; but since then he had been making inquiries, and now he knew. A ""Red"" was a fellow who sympathized with labor unions and with strikes; who wanted to murder the rich and divide their property, and believed that the quickest way to do the dividing was by means of dynamite. All ""Reds"" made bombs, and carried concealed weapons, and perhaps secret poisons--who could tell?This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
