Marsena, and Other Stories of the Wartime

"Marsena, and Other Stories of the Wartime" by Harold Frederic

Harold Frederic was an American journalist and novelist known for his method of capturing public sentiment with his words. This book contains Marsena, The War Widow, The Eve of the Fourth, and My Aunt Susan, which all capture what life was like during times of conflict as the turn of the century neared. People often think about soldiers, but everyone is affected by war, and that's precisely what Frederic portrays here.
