In 1914, journalist and mystery writer Mary Roberts Rinehart traveled to Europe alone to cover World War I for the Saturday EveningPost. This collection of her writings encompasses her observations on her travels—from being received by King Albert in Belgium and recording his first authorized statement on the war, to meeting Winston Churchill, to traveling to the English and French front lines as the first correspondent permitted there. Rinehart’s book was a humanitarian plea to Americans to join the war effort three years before the American Expeditionary Force set sail for Europe, an unpopular view vindicated by subsequent events.

Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.

Excerpt from Kings, Queens and Pawns: An American Woman at the Front I told her exactly half of why I was going. I had a shrewd idea that the question in itself meant nothing. But it gave her a good chance to look at me. She was a very clever woman. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

From the author of Losing Control aka The Rook brings you into the world of KINGS, QUEENS and PAWNS "The Chessboard is the world, the pieces are the phenomena of the universe, the rules of the game are what we call the laws of nature and the player on the other side is hidden from us" - Thomas Huxley The second book in 'The Chess Peace' series unlocks hidden doors the Kingston's didn't know existed. Doors they will go to extremes to keep locked. The Kingston's find themselves on the chessboard of life. Friends, foes and family each vie for the title of the 'King.' Each player comes face to face with shrouded demons from the past merely masquerading. As the game intensifies, each will find themselves on the cusp of being in check. For one of the Kingston's, this could mean check mate. Socialite Celia Banks-Kingston reunites with her former lover, Antony Basile, while in London. Little does Celia know that Antony is nothing more than a clever diversion. His partner, Sara Robin Kent, Celia's nemeses, travels to New York, where she sets out to destroy the Kingston's with the help of Antony. That is, if he doesn't have a change of heart. Pierce Kingston spirals out of control after learning that his fiance, Kim Duquette, is in a coma. Even in a catatonic state, she isn't safe from the vengeance of her ex lover, Jake Montrose. Jake and Pierce's ex girlfriend, Casey Taylor, devise their own plan to gain what they both want. Everyone is a player. Everyone is vying to be crowned King. But in all games, there is a winner and a loser. Who will come out on top? It's hard to tell when everyone is hiding behind a mask. Everyone has something to hide and they will go to great lengths to keep from having the masks stripped away. Social status proves to be harder to maintain when you have everything to lose. The board is set. The players are in place. Let the game commence...

Book Excerpt: uge man, in the uniform of a colonel of the Belgian Army, with a great military cape, he seemed to fill and dominate the little room. They conferred together in rapid French. "Where do you wish to go?" I was asked. "Everywhere." "Hospitals are not always cheerful to visit." "I am a graduate of a hospital training-school. Also a member of the American Red Cross." They conferred again. "Madame will not always be comfortable--over there." "I don't want to be comfortable," I said bravely. Another conference. The idea was a new one; it took some mental readjustment. But their cause was just, and mingled with their desire to let America know what they were doing was a justifiable pride. They knew what I was to find out--that one of the finest hospitals in the world, as to organisation, equipment and results, was situated almost under the guns of devastated Nieuport, so close that the roar of artillery is always in one's ears.

A historical novel of the legendary Eleanor of Aquitaine and the one person she loved more than power-her rival for the throne. At only nine, Princess Alais of France is sent to live in England until she is of age to wed Prince Richard, son of King Henry II and Queen Eleanor of Aquitaine. Alais is an innocent pawn on the chessboard of dynastic marriage, her betrothal intended to broker an uneasy truce between the nations. Estranged from her husband, Eleanor sees a kindred spirit in this determined young girl. She embraces Alais as a daughter, teaching the princess what it takes to be a woman of power in a world of men. But as Alais grows to maturity and develops ambitions of her own, Eleanor begins to see her as a threat-and their love for each other becomes overshadowed by their bitter rivalry, dark betrayals, conflicting passions, and a battle for revenge over the throne of England itself.

Belgium in the First World War--the first country invaded, the longest occupied, and when the war finally ended, the first forgotten. In 1914, Belgium was home to a large American colony which included representatives of American companies, artists, writers and diplomats with the American Legation. After the invasion, American journalists and adventurers flocked there to follow the action; military restrictions on travel were less stringent than in England or France. As the most industrialized country in Europe, Belgium depended upon trade and food imports to support its economy. The war isolated Belgium and wholesale starvation was imminent by the fall of 1914. Herbert Hoover and his Commission for Relief in Belgium raised funds to purchase and import food to sustain Belgium and, eventually, Occupied France as well. Idealistic American volunteers (including some Rhodes scholars) supervised food distribution in the occupation zone. Along the Western Front in Belgium, hundreds of Americans served (illegally) in the British and Canadian armies. This book tells the story of the German invasion, occupation and retreat from the perspective of Americans who were there.
