Summary

"Liége on the Line of March" by Glenna Lindsley Bigelow is a real-life story from the early 1900s about an American girl living in Liège, Belgium, when World War I started. The girl, Miss Bigelow, writes about how everything changed when the German army invaded, turning peaceful daily routines into chaos for her, the family hosting her (Monsieur X's family), and the local people. At first, life at the Château d'Angleur seemed calm, and many villagers didn't believe war was possible, but soon soldiers arrived, and the area became filled with military activity. Her journal tells of the growing tension and the sad shift from peace to turmoil as news from the war front arrived, showing the terrible impact of war on ordinary people.
