France Fighter: The first world war told in the first person.

By Allan Kardec

In 1914, the year the First World War broke out, Edith Wharton was fifty-two years old and enjoyed tremendous prestige as a novelist. Since 1910 she lived in France, the country she loved the most. It is not difficult, then, to imagine the horror of the invasion of France by the Germans. At the beginning of 1915 the French Red Cross asked him to report on the needs of the front hospitals. What she saw made her entertain the idea of recounting her experiences in a series of articles for Scribner's Magazine, which would later be compiled in the present volume. It was a time when foreign correspondents were excluded from the combat zone. But no one, no matter how powerful, was able to dissuade Edith Wharton from her endeavor, and so she decided to leave her Parisian apartment to visit, on six exciting expeditions, the battlefront on which the fate of Europe was decided, of Dunkirk to Belfort.Why buy this book: Because this period novel is not like the others, it has characters, context and details that will immerse you in the depths of this wonderful world, a book of those to begin with and not leave it until you finish reading it
