Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from A Story of the Canadian Red Cross Information Bureau During the Great War More than ten years have passed since the Bureau closed. When Peace came we were scattered to our various homes and in order that the world might as soon as possible return to the normal the necessity was laid on us to live our daily lives almost as if nothing had happened, as if those live years had been but a traffic interlude unrelated to what went before or followed after, or even as the substance of a dream - a dream of impossible contradictions, as all dreams are, of things noble and exalted, of things mad and monstrous and distorted from which mankind had at last awaked. But we know, who worked together through those years of splendour and of pain, we know that never did we come into such close touch with reality as in those years, and the mark and the memory of them are forever ours. One of us, Mrs. Carr, has written the story of the Bureau, written it in such detail that it could almost be reconstructed from her pages and at the same time has so caught and transmitted its spirit that as we read we live it all again. I think that a number of those who worked for the Bureau might be glad to have this record but the workers are widely scattered, names and addresses have changed, and it would be difficult to form an estimate of the probable demand, should it be placed on sale. For these and other reasons there has been issued for the present a very limited number of copies, which will be for private circulation.
