Peace Maneuvers by Richard Harding Davis is about hilarious Charles the Bold and his efforts in fending against the enemy regiment during his roleplay of a great, New York war. Excerpt: "The scout stood where three roads cut three green tunnels in the pine woods, and met at his feet. Above his head, an aged signpost pointed impartially to East Carver, South Carver, and Carver Centre, and left the choice to him. The scout scowled and bit nervously at his gauntlet. The choice was difficult, and there was no one with whom he could take counsel."
