Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Fanny Goes to War They have been in situations where, five short years ago, no one would ever have thought of finding them. They have witnessed and taken active part in scenes nerve-racking and heart rending beyond the power Of description. Often it has been my duty to watch car-load after car-load Of severely wounded being dumped into the reception marquees Of a Casualty Clearing Station. There they would be placed in long rows awaiting their turn, and there, amid the groans Of the wounded and the loud gaspings of the gassed, at the mere approach of a sister there would be a perceptible change and every conscious eye would brighten as with a ray of fresh hope. In the resuscitation and moribund marquees, nothing was more pathetic than to see Sister, with her notebook, stooping over some dying lad, catching his last messages to his loved ones. Women worked amid such scenes for long hours day after day, amid scenes as no mere man could long endure, and yet their nerves held out it may be because they were inspired by the nature of their work. I have seen them, too, continue that work under intermittent shelling and bombing, repeated day after day and night after night, and it was the rarest thing to find one whose nerves gave way. I have seen others rescue wounded from falling houses, and drive their cars boldly into streets with bricks and debris flying. I have also, alas! Seen them grievously wounded; and on one occasion, killed, and found their comrades continuing their work in the actual presence Of their dead. The free homes Of Britain little realise what our war women have been through, or what an undis charged debt is owing to them. How few now realise to what a large extent they were responsible for the fighting spirit, for the morale, for the tenacity which won the war! The feeling, the knowledge that their women were at hand to succour and to tend them when they fell raised the fighting spirit of the men and made them brave and confident. The above qualities are well exemplified by the conduct and bearing of our Authoress herself, who, when grievously injured, never lost her head or her consciousness, but through half an hour sat quietly on the road-side beside the wreck of her car and the mangled remains of her late companion.

The tales of the FIRST AID NURSING YEOMANRY in World War I. Originally riding into combat on horseback to aid the wounded, England's First Aid Nursing Yeomanry was formed in 1907 by a military officer who thought that a single rider could respond quicker than a cumbersome horse-drawn ambulance. By the time they were deployed during The First World War, the members of "Fanny" had moved on to horseless carriages, driving early ambulances into the combat zones. Yet their mission became no less dangerous as these woman risked their lives on battlefields far from home. In addition to rescuing the wounded from the front line, they ran the hospitals and tended to the troops, feeding and entertaining the wounded. "Fanny Goes to War" takes us back to those war torn fields and shows how the members of the First Aid Nursing Yeomanry showed their bravery on the battlefield and their lust for life off it.
