About this book
The Militants (1907) collects early short fiction by Mary Raymond Shipman Andrews (1860-1936), an American writer whose stories appeared chiefly in Scribner's Magazine from 1902 onward. Charles Scribner's Sons issued the book under its full title, The Militants: Stories of Some Parsons, Soldiers, and Other Fighters in the World, and the contents match it: clergymen, soldiers, and other determined characters work through questions of love, duty, and sacrifice in tales such as The Bishop's Silence and The Diamond Brooches. Andrews lived in Syracuse, New York, and had scored a national success the year before with The Perfect Tribute, her story about Lincoln and the Gettysburg Address. This collection shows the plainspoken moral fiction that kept her among Scribner's steadiest contributors for two decades. Free PDF download available on BDeBooks.
