| Summary | "Kings, Queens and Pawns: An American Woman at the Front" by Mary Roberts Rinehart is a historical account written during the early 20th century amid World War I. The narrative follows Rinehart, an American journalist and member of the American Red Cross, as she embarks on a journey to the front lines in Europe to document the realities of war and the conditions faced by soldiers and civilians. The opening of the book sets a poignant scene in England, depicting the fervent determination of British soldiers preparing to head into battle, alongside crowds of eager but anxious citizens. As Rinehart makes her way to the continent, she reflects on the grim realities of war, detailing her motivations of providing humanitarian aid and accurately reporting back to America on the environment surrounding the conflict. Through her observations, readers are introduced to the heartbreaking experiences of soldiers, the logistics of war, and the emotional upheaval felt across both sides of the conflict, as Rinehart's journey unfolds with a tone of urgency and compassion.
