'Here was Emily . . . in these diaries and scrapbooks. An unprecedented, intimate angle on the real Emily'Elsabe Brits has drawn on a treasure trove of previously private sources, including Emily Hobhouse's diaries, scrap-books and numerous letters that she discovered in Canada, to write a revealing new biography of this remarkable Englishwoman. Hobhouse has been little celebrated in her own country, but she is still revered in South Africa, where she worked so courageously, selflessly and tirelessly to save lives and ameliorate the suffering of thousands of women and children interned in camps set up by British forces during the Anglo-Boer War, in which it is estimated that over 27,000 Boer women and children died; and where her ashes are enshrined in the National Women's Monument in Bloemfontein. During the First World War, Hobhouse was an ardent pacifist. She organised the writing, signing and publishing in January 1915 of the 'Open Christmas Letter' addressed 'To the Women of Germany and Austria'. In an attempt to initiate a peace process, she also secretly metwith the German foreign minister Gottlieb von Jagow in Berlin, for which some branded her a traitor. In the war's immediate aftermath she worked for the Save the Children Fund in Leipzig and Vienna, feeding daily for over a year thousands of children, who would otherwise have starved. She later started her own feeding scheme to alleviate ongoing famine.Despite having been instrumental in saving thousands of lives during two wars, Hobhouse died alone - spurned by her country, her friends and even some of her relatives. Brits brings Emily's inspirational and often astonishing story, spanning three continents, back into the light. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition.

Large 8vo; original blue boards; laminated pictorial dustwrapper; pp. 398; cartoon illustrations in text. Dustwrapper slightly rubbed, with some foxing to reverse side; edges a little foxed, and occasional fox spot elsewhere. Very good condition. "It took the authors nineteen years of research to collect information on the more than 500 cartoonists discussed in this publication. The book is unique because it provides, for the first time in English, information about 'the men behind the drawings' - press artists, the graphic journalists, pictorial hecklers and leg-pullers whose wit, humour and mockery the man-in-the-street is exposed to daily. This authoritative book lists cartoonists who have worked in South Africa since the first illustrated newspapers were published here during the nineteenth century, and including artists like Frederick I'Ons, Heinrich Egersdörfer, W.H. Shröder, A.W. Lloyd, Anton van Wouw, D.C. Boonzaier, T.O. Honiball, Quip, Evo, John Jackson, David Marais, Bob Connolly, Len Lindeque, Len Sak, Dov Fedler, and Keith and Lorna Stevens. . The informative text is illustrated with self-caricatures of most of the cartoonists as well as about 700 different examples of their work.".…
