Ladies of Grecourt: The Smith College Relief Unit in the Somme is a historical book written by Ruth Louise Gaines in 1920. The book tells the story of a group of women from Smith College who volunteered to serve in France during World War I. The women, who came to be known as the Smith College Relief Unit, were stationed in the Somme region and worked tirelessly to provide aid to soldiers wounded in battle. The book provides a detailed account of their experiences, including the challenges they faced and the impact they had on the war effort. It also explores the role of women in the war and the changing attitudes towards their participation in traditionally male-dominated fields.Through firsthand accounts, letters, and photographs, Gaines paints a vivid picture of the women's daily lives and the conditions they faced. The book is a tribute to the bravery and dedication of the Smith College Relief Unit and serves as a testament to the important role that women played in the war effort. Overall, Ladies of Grecourt: The Smith College Relief Unit in the Somme is a compelling and informative read for anyone interested in the history of World War I, women's history, or humanitarian efforts during times of war.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
