Published by Jonathan Cape, 1929

Hardcover without dustjacket. The boards have a lot of bumping and the book has age toning. This is an ex-library book so has all the associated markings. Slightly slanted. Despite it showing its age, the book is still well bound. A very scarce title that sells for over $100 elsewhere online.

'Emily Hobhouse was a woman who gained the warm sympathy and admiration of many who knew her and aroused the bitter antagonism of others. For the first time it is possible to see the vivid experiences of her life as they presented themselves to her, thanks to her reminiscences from which this volume is largely compiled.

'After living for thirty-five years in a remote country parish, Miss Hobhouse found scope for her great energy in adventurous pioneer work, first in a wild American mining village, and afterwards in the reform of the Concentration Camps during the Boer War. When Peace was made, she threw herself into the constructive work of organising home industries for the Boer girls. After the European War, undaunted by serious ill-health, she again took an active part in the relief of suffering, by organising aid for the undernourished children of Leipzig.'
