DOWNLOAD EBOOKExcerpt from The American Red Cross in Greece The American Red Cross has maintained a mission in Greece for a period of nine months. During that period the uniforms of the American Red Cross officer and of the American Red Cross trained nurse and social worker have become familiar to a large proportion of the Greek people; and the people of certain sections of the country have been able to observe with their own eyes the business upon which the American organization has been engaged. We need no introduction, for example, to the inhabitants of Eastern Macedonia and the larger Aegean islands; and the people in Athens, in a general way, know the purpose of the mission. But probably the Greek people as a whole have been somewhat at a loss to understand why the American Red Cross was here - what were the motives and objects of the mission; and, naturally, they have had little opportunity of learning what we have actually been doing in Greece - the nature and extent of our undertakings. It has, therefore, seemed to me, as head of the mission, proper to issue this statement about the American Red Cross Commission to Greece, and to review briefly, the work upon which we have been engaged and which has now been brought to a conclusion. For the mission will have failed in one of its objects if, as a result of our sojourn in Greece, the Greek people and the American people are not drawn together in closer bonds of sympathy, understanding and friendship.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKExcerpt from The American Red Cross Commission to Greece: Relief Work Among the Villages of Mount Pangeon On November 6, 1918, a party consisting of Lieutenant Colonel Edward Capps, Commissioner to Greece, Major Carl E. Black, Major Clifford W. Barnes, Mr. B. H. Hill and Mr. C. W. Blegen left Athens by rail on a mission of investigation in Eastern Macedonia. The Greek Commission had arrived in Athens only two weeks before this date. At that time it controlled not one pound of supplies, and had only the hope of coming shipments with which to organize relief work. In Salonica much information was gathered as to conditions prevailing in Eastern Macedonia, and it was ascertained that Greece was at that moment faced with the serious problem of repatriating many thousands of refugees who had been, during the war, held as prisoners in Bulgaria. These refugees were then straggling back toward their homes in the different parts of Eastern Macedonia. The attention of Colonel Capps and the other members of the party was called particularly to the mountainous region of the Pangaeon, where the country had been most severely devastated, inasmuch as the villages of this district lay within the limits of the second and third Bulgarian lines of defense, and almost the total population had been deported from their homes. It was obvious that here was a field of special need, and immediate action was necessary. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKExcerpt from The American Red Cross, in the Great War IT is the effort of this book to set forth the scope, char acter and effect of the work of the American Red Cross during the Great War. When the war closed more than thirty million Americans were enrolled in the organiza tion. Some of these were in foreign fields; most of them were at home. But, in one way or another, they were all helping. All of them working together made up the American Red Cross. Stories of special sacrifice or devotion cannot be given here and yet few organizations have so closely touched the great currents of human life. Detailed narratives will accordingly follow this book. I have sought here to sum marize the work of the thirty millions as a whole. To characterize the Red Cross work of any man or woman. Or to attempt to describe it with any regard to proper perspective, would be invidious if not impossible. I have therefore omitted the mention of names. The highest satisfaction any worker in the Red Cross can derive from his work is from the fact that the work itself was well done. The files of the War Council have been freely drawn upon in the preparation of this book. And I want to make special acknowledgment to every member of the force at headquarters. And to the special correspondents and staffs of our foreign commissions, who seemingly have vied with one another in supplying me, either orally or in writing, with material without which the scope of this book could not be what it is. Indeed it may accurately be said that the book itself is a product of the American Red Cross. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKExcerpt 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."
