The Aftermath of Battle: With The Red Cross In France in Bloomington, MN

This book contains a most powerful account of the experiences of a young American who undertook work in the war hospitals of France. Owen Wister shares in his Preface, "written without art, yet with the effect of high art, with the effect, for example, of Defoe's account of the Plague, the reader ceases to be looking at a picture; he is himself in the picture, its terrific realities surround him as if he were walking among them."
