Book Description
Excerpt from The Playgoer and Society Illustrated, 1911, Vol. 3: A Monthly Magazine of the Drama, Literature, Art, Fashion, and Society The Chocolate Soldier is a warrior with little or no taste for war. He frankly admits that he thinks more of his skin than his country. He enters the bedroom of Nadina by night, a refugee from the Bulgarians, with whom her country is at war. Here he listens to Nadina's praise of his enemy Alexis, her hero. Bumerli, the chocolate soldier, frightens her into submission, and she, secretly admiring him, shields him from arrest when a party of soldiers enter the room to search for him.
