London, 2010, first edition; large 8vo, pp [xi], 417; photographs in the text and with maps of France and Belgium and of Brussels on the end papers; black cloth title gilt, pictorial dustwrapper, overall in very good condition. . . . . . Cavell trained as a nurse, duly recruited to become matron of a then newly established nursing school in Brussels. After a period back in England she returned to Brussels at the outbreak of the first World War. Under the German Occupation of the city in later 1914 she became active in sheltering British and French soldiers and helping them to escape out of occupied Belgium, in violation of German military law. She was duly betrayed and arrested and charged with war treason in, as she freely admitted, helping around two hundred young men to escape. Despite diplomatic pressure she was duly executed by firing squad in October 2015, aged 49.

Hard cover dust wrapper, 404pp, b&w photos. Light wear to board/dw edges; a very good copy. Edith Cavell was born in 1865, daughter of a Norfolk vicar, and shot in Brussels on 12 October 1915 by the Germans for sheltering British and French soldiers and helping them escape over the Belgian border. Following a traditional village childhood in 19th century England, Edith worked as a governess in the UK and abroad, before training as a nurse in London in 1895. To Edith, nursing was a duty, a vocation, but above all a service. By 1907, she had travelled most of Europe and become matron of her own hospital in Belgium, where, under her leadership, a ramshackle hospital with few staff and little organisation became a model nursing school. When war broke out, Edith helped soldiers to escape the war by giving them jobs in her hospital, finding clothing and organising safe passage into Holland. In all, she assisted over two hundred men. When her secret work was discovered, Edith was put on trial and sentenced to death by firing squad. She uttered only 130 words in her defence. A devout Christian, the evening before her death, she asked to be remembered as a nurse, not a hero or a martyr, and prayed to be fit for heaven. When news of Edith's death reached Britain, army recruitment doubled. Diana Souhami brings one of the Great War's finest heroes to life in this biography of a hardworking, courageous and independent woman.
