Summary

Ambrose Bierce brings to life the heart rendering stories of divided loyalties, splitting families, states, countries, and individuals. He writes of the glory in beginning and savagery in the doing.

Here is a moving anti-war series of stories if ever there was one. A must read by all students of American History and Literature, though perhaps best understood by older adults.

Not sure what this was meant to be.

Bought it as thought it was a non-fiction work, but I'm not adverse to well written fiction so perservered. Unfortunately each story is nonsensical and pointless, with very little historical relevance and full of over dramatised characters and description. Audio has been recorded on low budget equipment and is bad, although the unintentional bird song in the background in parts of the book is quite pleasant.

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
