This book is an authoritative account of the efforts by the Christian Science Church to aid those whose lives were affected by World War I. It presents a detailed narrative of the establishment of the War Relief Fund in 1914 and its subsequent expansion to include a Camp Welfare Committee in 1917. The book chronicles the activities of Christian Scientists who provided spiritual and material support to those in need, including the distribution of Christian Science literature, financial assistance, and the establishment of rest and recreation centers. The book places these efforts within the broader context of the war and explores the motivations and beliefs that drove the Christian Science community to undertake such a comprehensive humanitarian campaign.
