In 1968, as the Vietnam War raged overseas, the quiet campus of Mary Washington College—just twenty minutes from Quantico—became an unlikely crossroads of love, protest, and loss. Four young women, bound by friendship, are drawn into a conflict they never chose, their lives forever changed by the men sent to fight and the times that tore a nation apart. The Brides of War is a powerful story of love, courage, loyalty, and the unseen toll of war on those left behind—a tribute to the women who carried the weight of history in silence.
‘Steve Gladis’ The Brides of War is a moving and ambitious novel—historically grounded, emotionally charged, and told through strong female voices that bring the Vietnam era’s private grief and public turmoil vividly to life.’
