Overview
Active Service: Or Work Among Our Soldiers is a book written by Jane Ellice Hopkins in 1872. It is a first-hand account of her experiences working with soldiers during the Franco-Prussian War. Hopkins was a British philanthropist who travelled to France to provide aid and comfort to the British soldiers fighting in the war. The book details her work in hospitals and on the battlefield, as well as her interactions with soldiers and military officials. Hopkins also discusses the challenges she faced as a woman working in a male-dominated field, and her efforts to improve the conditions for soldiers. The book provides a unique perspective on the war and the role of women in wartime, and is a valuable historical document of the time.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
