A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

To 0001; the duties that war or disaster impose upon the generous impulses of a nation with any degree of success and efficiency, united action is, of course, necessary under the centralized control of experienced And responsible public servants. For this.reason, and also to conform to the requirements of the Convention of Geneva, the American Sed Cross ras created by A ct of Congress, v. I believe that this great organization will more and more enjoy the confidence and receive the support of the people of the United States as its purposes and methods become more widely known and more thoroughly understood. It seena to me very fortunate, therefore, tfcat a book dealing with thfr history and achievements of the Bed Cross should have been written by one so. long familiar with its work as Miss Boardmsn, and I commend this book to the careful perusal of all who are interested in the development of the great work the Red Cross represents. In common with all Americans who have been observant of the American Bed Cross, I am one of its sincere admirers. I admire not. only the work done but the people who hve done it and the way in which it has been done. I.esteem It an honor to be connected with the society. I have had occasion to.observe at somewhat short range I ts work in connection with many distressing conditions resulting both from disaster and. from vr. I know how admirably I ts officers responded to these calls ;and with what a practiced hand they responded.; how clearly the society understood its duties; and what excellent instrumental it lea it had throng which to act. I therefore.feel that direct.
