Book
Edith Wharton was living in Paris when World War I broke out in 1914. She observed the disbelief, fear and panic as the city's inhabitants came to terms with the reality of war in their country. Wharton then obtained permission to visit sites behind the lines, including hospitals, ravaged villages, and trenches, from which she reports with the insight and talent for description that mark her work as one of the century's greatest writers.
