“So impressed was Mrs. Kellogg by the greatness and value of what the Belgian women are doing to help save the Belgian people that she has written this book, in which each chapter describes some phase or tells some incident of what she saw. The simplicity with which she writes makes the wonderful story of the devotion, the unstinted service, the utter self-abnegation with which many thousands of Belgian women are giving themselves completely to this work stand out all the more grandly.”—_Times_, New York.
“Among the thousands of books that have been written on the war, in this country and abroad, the pen of a woman has given us the truest portrayal of the real heart of a heart-broken people.”—_Constitution_, Atlanta, Ga.
“The pages brim with information and with profoundest pathos. As you read some of them you will feel a lump in your throat.”—_Knickerbocker Press_, Albany, N. Y.
“It is a book of tears, heart-throbs, and of devotion.... We do not think that anyone who reads it will regret sending a son to redress the wrongs of humanity.”—_Inquirer_, Philadelphia, Pa.
“The farther you read the more you will wish to read, so great is the charm, so intense the interest.”—_Eastern Argus_, Portland, Me.
“It is full of the kind of stuff that makes us proud of the part played by Americans in the work of saving Belgium from famine during the long, sad months that Germany had its iron heel on this stricken land.”—_Evening Star_, Poughkeepsie, N. Y.
“The only American woman member of that Commission wrote the book—Mrs. Charlotte Kellogg—after spending eight months on Belgian soil; and her strong sympathy, her unfailing appreciation, intensify the literary charm of its pages. Learning how these women have labored, in their mothering of smitten millions, we get from this book side-lights upon the effects of the war.”—_Richmond Times Despatch._
