The Red Cross was the inspiration and dream of Henri Dunant, a 31 year old Swiss businessman appalled by the butchery and lack of medical care for injured Soldiers he came across- almost by chance- during the battle of Solferino in 1859. Dunant set out to create an international organization which would not only alter the fate of all those wounded in war, but which moved rapidly to establish international humanitarian law, begin refugee work, improve prison conditions, and track down those parted by warfare. A authoritative book on the subject. A pristine and clean copy.
