Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Towards the Goal: A Woman's Letter From the Front
The result was a short book which has been translated into many foreign tongues - French, Italian, Dutch, German, Russian, Portuguese, and Japanese, - which has brought me many American letters from many different States, and has been, perhaps, most widely read of all among our own people. For we all read news papers, and we all forget them! In this vast and changing struggle, events huddle on each other, so that the new blurs and wipes out the old. There is always room - is there not for such a personal narrative as may recall to us the main outlines and the chief determining factors of a war, in which - often - everything seems to us m flux, and our eyes, amid the tu mult of the stream, are apt to iose sight of the landmarks on its banks, and the signs of the approaching goal.
