The Soul of the C.R.B.: A French View of the Hoover Relief Work (1919) is a book written by Madeleine Saint-Rene Taillandier that provides a comprehensive account of the Commission for Relief in Belgium (C.R.B.) and its humanitarian efforts during World War I. The book is a first-hand account of the author's experience as a member of the C.R.B. and her observations of the organization's work in providing food and aid to the Belgian people during the war. The book provides a detailed description of the conditions in Belgium during the war, including the widespread hunger and poverty that affected the population. It also describes the challenges faced by the C.R.B. in delivering aid to the people, including the difficulties of transportation and communication in a war-torn country. The author also provides insights into the philosophy and ethos of the C.R.B., which she describes as being driven by a sense of duty and compassion for the suffering of the Belgian people. The book also explores the role of Herbert Hoover, who was the head of the C.R.B. and later became the President of the United States. Overall, The Soul of the C.R.B. is a valuable historical document that provides a unique perspective on the humanitarian efforts of the C.R.B. during World War I, as seen through the eyes of a French member of the organization.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
