Summary "Animali alla guerra" by Giulio Caprin is a fictional work written in the early 20th century. This book reflects on the experiences of animals used during war, particularly focusing on their roles and experiences alongside soldiers in a combat setting. It explores themes of survival, companionship, and the harsh realities of war from the unique perspective of these animals, illustrating both their struggles and their contributions in times of conflict. The opening of the book introduces the notion that animals, often overlooked in the context of war, play significant roles that merit attention. Caprin presents a vivid account of the experiences faced by various animals, particularly horses and mules, as they are requisitioned for military service. Through humorous and poignant anecdotes, he describes their struggles in adapting to the harsh conditions of war and draws parallels between the loyalty of these animals and that of the soldiers who care for them. As the narrative unfolds, it emphasizes the interconnected fates of humans and animals amid the chaos of battle, setting the stage for a deeper exploration of these bonds throughout the book.
