Stephen McKenna

Ninety-Six Hours' Leave is a novel written by Stephen McKenna and published in 1917. The story is set during World War I and follows the experiences of a young British officer named Anthony Marshall. After being wounded in battle, Marshall is granted a brief leave of absence to return home to England. During his 96 hours of leave, he reconnects with his family and friends, including his former love interest, Sylvia, whom he had broken up with years earlier. As he spends time with Sylvia, Marshall begins to question his commitment to the war and his duty to his country. The novel explores themes of love, duty, and the toll of war on soldiers and their families. It is a poignant and thought-provoking work that captures the emotional complexity of life during wartime.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
