Short Stories About War

Nathaniel Hawthorne

Diplomacy by other means may, at times, sound heroic. A fight for principles and ideals carried out by young men armed to the teeth and directed by older men in pursuit of their own version of glory for themselves and their Nations. Right will triumph over wrong. But war can be an illusion, stirred up by schemers and opportunists to take something from other nations that may or may not be right. As blood and limb are sacrificed the true cost is seen but often set to one side as the dispute becomes embedded in emotions and reason falls away. In this volume our classic authors including Victor Hugo, Thomas Wolfe, Ambrose Bierce, Ford Madox Ford and many others explore the many facets of this problem and its human dimensions. 1 - Short Stories About War - An Introduction 2 - Roger Malvin's Burial by Nathaniel Hawthorne 3 - A Fight with a Cannon by Victor Hugo 4 - A Horseman in the Sky by Ambrose Bierce 5 - Pink Flannel by Ford Maddox Ford 6 - Two Friends by Guy de Maupassant 7 - War by Luigi Pirandello 8 - The Fly by Katherine Mansfield 9 - An Occurrence At Owl Creek Bridge by Ambrose_Bierce 10 - The Devil Light by Edgar Wallace 11 - The Siege of Berlin by Alphonse Daudet 12 - Red Tape by May Sinclair 13 - A Cullenden of Virginia by Thomas Wolfe 14 - The Revolutionist by Mikhail Petrovich Artzybashev 15 - Spud Trevor of the Red Hussars by Sapper 16 - Chickamauga by Ambrose Bierce 17 - The Bowmen by Arthur Machen 18 - Wodjabet by C E Montague 19 - The Casualty List by Winifred Holtby 20 - The Loathly Opposite by John Buchan 21 - The Strange Looking Man by Fanny Kemble Johnson 22 - The German Spy by William Hope Hodgson 23 - The Soul of a Regiment by Talbot Mundy 24 - My First Goose by Isaac Babel 25 - The Locket by Kate Chopin 26 - Them Others by Stacy Aumonier 27 - The Story of a Conscience by Ambrose Bierce Author - Nathaniel Hawthorne.
