Augustus Does His Bit is a satirical play written by George Bernard Shaw. The story is set in London during World War I and follows the character of Augustus, a wealthy and idle young man who is forced to confront the realities of war when he is conscripted into the army. Despite his initial reluctance, Augustus soon becomes a model soldier and is even promoted to the rank of captain. However, his newfound sense of duty and patriotism is put to the test when he is tasked with leading a group of soldiers on a dangerous mission behind enemy lines. Along the way, Augustus grapples with the moral implications of war and the role of the individual in a larger conflict. Shaw's signature wit and social commentary are on full display in this biting critique of war and the British class system.AUGUSTUS. I did not know that I was talking to an imbecile. You ought to be ashamed of yourself. There must be an end of this drunken slacking. I'm going to establish a new order of things here. I shall come down every morning before breakfast until things are properly in train. Have a cup of coffee and two rolls for me here every morning at half-past ten.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
