Fighting France Summary:

That night we went up once more to the rock of Cassel. The moon was full, and as civilians are not allowed out alone after dark a staff-officer went with us to show us the view from the roof of the disused Casino on top of the rock. It was the queerest of sensations to push open a glazed door and find ourselves in a spectral painted room with soldiers dozing in the moonlight on polished floors, their kits stacked on the gaming tables.

As pertinent today as it was in World War I, the nonfiction travelogue Fighting France follows American expatriate Edith Wharton through France as she attempts to discover how a society of culture can prepare itself for that least cultured of activities: war.
