{"product_id":"1468669","title":"A hilltop on the Marne by Mildred Aldrich","description":"A splendid and moving account of the opening days of World War I from a strong-willed American woman living right near the battlefield of the Marne. Her observations and encounters are very much at the personal level with the refugees, the village inhabitants, and the soldiers billeted in her village. Mildred Aldrich is a generous and empathetic individual realizing both the predicament of France being invaded and the young soldiers who want to defend their motherland. She helps in any way she can and has ordinary conversations with the soldiers. In this book one experiences the war on a day-to-day level, where one does not know the outcome and makes due with each passing moment, not discerning what the next hour or day will bring. It is wonderful that she recorded her experiences.
