Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Blinded Soldiers and Sailors Gift Book
IN compiling the present work no regular plan has been observed. It is merely intended as a Gift Book which, in addition to fulfilling its object in this respect, aims at helping those brave fellows who have suffered one of the worst misfortunes that can befall a human being. Among all the tragical figures of the war none are more deserving of our sympathy and help than those whose injuries received in defence of the Empire - are of the nature of permanent blindness.
