The Backwash of War is a collection of essays by Ellen Newbold La Motte, an American nurse who served during World War I. The book provides a firsthand account of the human cost of war, as La Motte describes the physical and emotional toll on soldiers and civilians alike. She vividly depicts the horrors of the battlefield, including the use of chemical weapons, and the devastating impact on those who survived. La Motte's writing is both poignant and powerful, offering a unique perspective on the war and its aftermath. Published in 1916, The Backwash of War is a seminal work of war literature and a testament to the resilience of the human spirit in the face of unimaginable suffering.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
