- Synopsis
- Author John Hutchinson argues that the world’s national Red Cross organizations failed in their original aim of making war more humane. In fact, their principal achievement in the 19th and early 20th centuries was to propagandize the values of militarism and wartime sacrifice and to encourage women to participate in national war efforts. The first objective, critical history of the creation of the Red Cross, Champions of Charity provides a startling new image of the world’s largest charitable organization.
