Writers from North America who travelled to Europe to gather material for newspaper articles, magazine articles, and books about the European War were always on a journey of understanding.
When The Saturday Evening Post sent Canadian and United States novelist Maude Radford Warren (1875–1934) to Europe in 1916, the articles that she wrote for the Post in 1917 later formed the content of the 1918 book The White Flame of France. The book takes the reader from Warren's trans-Atlantic voyage to the trenches of northeastern France.
