Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Woman With a Stone Heart: A Romance of the Philippine War
To Her, who, as a bride of only eighteen months, stood broken-hearted on the depot platform and bade me a tearful farewell as our train of soldier boys started to war; who later, While I was Ten Thousand miles away from home on soldier duty in the Philippine Islands, became a Mother; and who, unfort unately, three months thereafter, was called upon to lay our first-born, Oliver D. Coursey, into his snow-lined baby tomb amid the bleak silence of a cold winter's night, with no strong arm to bear her up in those awful hours of anguish and despair.
