Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Red Cross in France He arrives at Boulogne, and before he lands he can count sixty-seven Red Cross ambulances packed on the further quay. He is met at the gangway by a man in a Red Cross uniform, who takes him in charge in his badly battered motor, and lands him at the front door of the head quarters of the e.r.c. At that Port. These head quarters are an old French hotel, converted for the purpose, every part of it full of the most incessant activity, and he takes his orders from the Commissioner. They amount substantially to this, that whatever the Red Cross wants in any direction anywhere he is to be ready to do it, or to help to do it, as far as he can. He takes a view of the stores, which contain everything under Heaven that soldiers, sick or wounded, can by any possibility need, from bedsteads to feather dusters, the Red Cross being ready to furnish everything that the War Office cannot be expected to furnish, and can in ten hours, as the author claims, in case of emergency supply to the sufferers what the War Office would take ten weeks to procure. He shows how the Red Cross accepts the services of men who are refused for the regular army for physical or other causes, or because not up to or far beyond the fighting age, and how eagerly and zealously all these perform the parts assigned them. He shows the wonderful work of the Red Cross ambulances, how they start out to meet the ambulance trains arriving from the front, going at breakneck speed over the rough roads, and how they return loaded with sick and wounded.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Helping France the Red Cross in the Devastated Area A French newspaper correspondent was conducted one day through the Paris offices of the American Red Cross. He was vastly and courteously impressed both by what he saw and by his guide. "But," he writes, "I cannot name to you the person who showed me about because he was an officer, and I suppose that in America as in France the uniform fosters and expresses the wish for a loss of identity." It was charmingly put, delicately imagined. Best of all, it is true. Our American Red Cross in France, accused by some of aggressiveness, practicality and all the pushing faults of our young democracy, has nevertheless the innate shyness of its youth and of its singleness of purpose. All its hope is that it may have helped to alleviate suffering and advance the hour of victory. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from American Red Cross Work Among the French People From the inception of the war partisanship for France was palpable in the United States. One heard and read recurring allusions to the vital aid she had rendered us during our War of the Revolution and the debt owed her by the world because of her consistent and heroic efforts to secure the rights of the individual. France had been the crucible where all the great social and political questions of Europe had first been tried out. She was ever one of the leaders in the onward march of civilization. In art, science, and literature she had held aloft the standard and throughout her history her courage and gallantry had burned like those inextinguishable lamps on the altars of the ancients. The wonder of the Crusades, that still glows for us like a lonely jewel in the dark setting of the Middle Ages, is due mainly to her and she it was who first emerged from the gloom of those stagnant years and gave to Europe the initial example of a new and definite social organization. It was on her soil that the people, as distinguished from the aristocracy, first united in the Third Estate whose voice, sounding always the slogan of justice for the masses, was heard and heeded in other countries. From her Revolution came those ideas that are today the basis of her public and private laws; ideas which "the Republic and the Empire, by their victories, disseminated in every part of Europe and which are destined to spread over the whole world because they are summed up in the one word justice."

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Passing Legions: How the American Red Cross Met the American Army in Great Britain, the Gateway to France The exhilaration and incentive which came of service at the front, of contact with actual warfare and the sharing of adventures and dangers with fighting troops were denied to the American Red Cross staff in Great Britain. But, for all that, its work never once lacked a superb inspiration nor was it devoid of moments of sheer drama. Its service lay back of the lines, among those either "on the way up" - for a million American soldiers passed through England on their long journey to the battle zones - or on leave or returning, wounded and worn, from the firing line. To these men it ministered in many ways which are past forgetfulness. In a war extending over so vast a theatre and for so long a time, the activities of the several American Red Cross Commissions abroad must often have been identical in both intent and execution. The aim of the writer, therefore, has been rather to avoid such coincidental details of history and helpfulness and to narrate those achievements which distinguished the work in Great Britain, those which, in the swift emergency preceding them, in their setting and their drama are without counterpart in the chronicle of any other Red Cross effort in Europe. It has not been possible, in recounting these narratives, to present the names of all those who had a part in the work, but this can take nothing from the heart and high pride with which their service was given nor from their share in a great achievement. The writer wishes to make grateful acknowledgment to many members of the staff for aid in the compilation of this volume, for access to archives and to other written records whose artistry inspired him not a little.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Maple Leaf's Red Cross: The War Story of the Canadian Red Cross Overseas Throughout the war years, as I studied the activities of the Canadian Red Cross in England and in France, I wondered if the people who raised the money and knitted the socks realized in the very least what a help ful part they were playing in the great struggle. The most that I hope for this little book is that it will give to the people across the sea who have worked so long and so faithfully for the Sick and wounded, and for those who have suffered through the war, some clear and gratifying impressions of that many-sided, enter prising, sympathetic organization they supported, which built itself up to be one of the wonders of the war.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Under Three Flags: With the Red Cross in Belgium, France and Serbia The outbreaks of the war found us peacefully motoring through Germany. The news of mobilisation reached us on the outskirts of Berlin, and burst upon us, with something of its full meaning, in the Friedrich Strasse, where our road was blocked by vast numbers of students marching through the streets and shouting, "Nach Paris!" These tumultuous demonstrations continued both day and night, during our forced stay in Berlin. Sleep was out of the questions, as until daybreak the city rang with tramping footsteps, and the thunderous strains of "Die Wacht am Rhein" and "Deutschland, Deutschland uber Alles!"
