"Diary of a Nursing Sister on the Western Front 1914-1915" was originally published anonymously in 1915 but was republished in 1930 as "Unknown Warriors : Extracts from the Letters of K. E. Luard, R.R.C. : Nursing Sister in France 1914-1918" and, subsequently, in a modern Edition in 2017 by The History Press.

There is a web-site devoted to her: http://kateluard.co.uk/

Kind regards,

Remarkable lady, who's long life was spent caring for others. Have just bought the book and am looking forward to reading her letters.

Thanks for sharing,

Simon
