Robert Buchanan (1841-1901) beschreibt in seinem Roman den Leidensweg eines Kriegsdienstverweigerers unter Napoleon. Er beschreibt feinfühlig Land, Leute und Sitten. Er zeigt schonungslos die Schrecken des Krieges. Man nimmt teil an den Strapazen und Verfolgungen, die Rohan, der Held des Romans, auf sich nimmt, um nicht in den Krieg ziehen zu müssen. Er hält sich an das Bibelwort 'Du sollst nicht töten'. Er hält seinen Schwur niemals zu töten, selbst auf die Gefahr hin, Marcelle, seine große Liebe zu verlieren.
