Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from A Woman´s Point of View: Some Roads to Peace Late in the armistice The Womans Press asked me to write a book on the constructive outcomes of the Great War. The enterprise seemed to me to promise only success. During four years the idealists had been waging war to end war, and had had visions of a new world rising from the wreckage of the old. Humanity was promised a rebirth when peace should again spread over the earth its sheltering wings. When I sailed to Europe to gather material for the book, I was full of confidence that I should find the roots if not the leafage of strong growths of sound constructive policies. The lessons of the war, we had been led to expect, had been taken to heart and had borne fruit. As a reflex of war needs we supposed there would have developed in civil life greater attention to sanitation, greater generosity towards education, greater hospitality towards all efforts making for the salvage of the race, and above all, a larger spirit of justice and fellowship.
