4.9/5 (30005 ratings)

Description:In London in 1900, the upper class Emily Hobhouse heard that women and children caught in the Boer War were having a difficult time. Concerned, she went to South Africa to investigate and assist. She threaded her way through the conflict, all on her own and undaunted by the danger, discomfort and considerable difficulties. What she found was very disturbing. But her government did not want to listen when she told them what she had found and they did not want her to tell anyone. They did not want the world to know what they were doing. This book tells the remarkable story of a courageous woman who, in a dark moment in British history, confronted the leaders of her nation – military, political and administrative – to uphold the values we all cherish. Her courageous and committed work would be acclaimed around the world if she were alive today.
