No Hero is a novel written by E. W. Hornung. The story follows the life of a young man named Victor, who is not your typical hero. He is a man who is plagued by self-doubt and struggles with his own identity. Victor is not brave, nor is he strong, but he is determined to make a difference in the world. His journey takes him from the streets of London to the battlefields of Europe during World War I. Along the way, he meets a cast of characters, including a beautiful nurse named Sylvia, who helps him find his courage and his purpose. As Victor faces his fears and battles his own demons, he discovers that sometimes, the greatest heroes are the ones who are the most unlikely. No Hero is a gripping tale of self-discovery, bravery, and the power of the human spirit.""What, the Matterhorn?"" said he, lowering his voice and looking about him as if on the point of some discreditable admission. ""Oh, yes, I've done the Matterhorn, back and front and both sides, with and without guides; but everybody has, in these days. It's nothing when you know the ropes and chains and things. They've got everything up there now except an iron staircase. Still, I should be sorry to tackle it to-day, even if they had a lift!""This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
