Old Glory and Verdun, and other stories

About the author
Elizabeth Frazer was an American writer born in 1877 and died in 1967. The clearest confirmed work I found is Old Glory and Verdun, and Other Stories (1918), a collection centered on wartime France that was later preserved by major library and public-domain archives.
The book is remembered for its close-up view of World War I experience, especially hospital life and the people working through fear, exhaustion, humor, and loss. Based on the available catalog and archive records, Frazer’s surviving reputation today seems to rest mainly on this wartime writing rather than on a large widely documented public biography.
Reliable biographical details beyond her dates and authorship are limited in the sources I could confirm, so it is safest to describe her as an early 20th-century author whose known work offers a personal, compassionate window into the First World War.
