7 Letters from the trenches of World War I.

World War One, in the facts, but in the fiction *Finished and marked school assignment*

In 1913, a French Poilus is caught up in a Great War. Not a War against another man. Instead, All of Humanity is fighting for it's right to exist. (I do not own the War of the Worlds. Based loosely off of the "Great Martian War".)

Humanity; the word for human beings, and the word for compassion. Looking at us as a race it seems absurd for the word for our species to be one of kindness. However, sometimes, on very rare occasions, we prove ourselves worthy of such a word.  A short story to mark the Christmas day truce that took place 100 years ago today. In the trenches of WW1 on the 25 of December 1914 climbed out of their trenches to spend Christmas with the men they were fighting against. An event that should never be forgotten

The Civil War is raging, tearing the north and south apart, dividing families and destroying the country. Grace is a southern woman who has had to face the injustice that her parents find to be acceptable. To them slavery and subjugation are the right of the southern plantation owners. When Grace is abused, watches her brother get murdered and her best friend, a slave, get beaten for nothing, Grace decides its time to make a stand. Soon she finds herself deep in the middle of the bloodiest war in American history, fighting injustice and trying to right the wrongs of the past.
