In the post World War I era, Willa Cathers story of a Nebraska farmers idealized departure to defend France met a mixed reception. By then, the romance had been taken out of the war, and Claude Wheelers willingness to fight and die in a foreign country for ideals he can barely articulate created a cultural controversy. Ultimately, One of Ours won the Pulitzer Prize in 1922.
