Produktbeschreibung
A spark that still warms the room: this is the story of Elsie Inglis, the doctor who steadied a generation with courage, compassion, and an unflinching belief in service. Eva Shaw McLaren's historical biography renders a vivid portrait of a woman in the forge of modern Britain. The book traces Inglis's path from Scotland to the front lines, weaving wartime history narrative with the broader currents of the suffrage movement and women's medical pioneers. It is both a rigorous account and a deeply human biography that invites casual readers and classic-literature collectors alike to consider how a single life reflected and shaped an era. Beyond biography, the work offers literary and historical significance: a lens on early twentieth century britain and europe in the 1910s, a portrait of women in world war i medical services, and a compelling study of suffrage era biographies and the impact of the suffrage movement. It doubles as rich classroom study resources and a popular history reader, bringing to light underappreciated figures who advanced medicine, public health, and women's civic presence. Out of print for decades and now republished by Alpha Editions, restored for today's and future generations, this is more than a reprint - a collector's item and a cultural treasure. A moving, meticulously researched account that honours both the subject and the era.
