When you summarize, you take the main points of a story and write in in a few sentences. You want to make sure you hit all the key parts of the story and don't focus on the small details. If you were telling a friend about a movie you saw, you would by describe the major events, but not the little moments. That would be summarizing. You can do this with any book,movie,story etc. :)
Answer:
Henry Fleming - The novel’s protagonist; a young soldier fighting for the Union army during the American Civil War. Initially, Henry stands untested in battle and questions his own courage. As the novel progresses, he encounters hard truths about the experience of war, confronting the universe’s indifference to his existence and the insignificance of his own life. Often vain and holding extremely romantic notions about himself, Henry grapples with these lessons as he first runs from battle, then comes to thrive as a soldier in combat.
Jim Conklin - Henry’s friend; a tall soldier hurt during the regiment’s first battle. Jim soon dies from his wounds, and represents, in the early part of the novel, an important moral contrast to Henry.
