Sir Harry Lauder was the most successful star of the English music halls in the first quarter of the twentieth century. Scotland's image in the world today owes much to the caricature presented by Harry Lauder's stage performances. His extravagant highland dress, glengarry at a jaunty angle, humor, ultra-thrifty attitudes and sentimental songs endeared him to many audiences. A Minstrel in France is the account of the Scottish performer's travels and experiences entertaining the troops in England France and America during World War I. This despite his son, Captain John Lauder of the First 8th Argyle and Sutherland Highlanders, having been killed in a battle in France.
