Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book is a meticulous examination of the extensive and systematic abuse of medical personnel and facilities during World War One. It draws from original source material, including first-person accounts, to uncover the truth of these events. The author traces the progression of events from the initial stages of the war, when anecdotal evidence emerged, through the establishment of the Extraordinary Commission of Inquiry. This ultimately led to the exposure of widespread atrocities committed against Russian medical personnel and sanctuaries, confirming the intentional nature of these attacks. The book provides historical context, exploring the obligations of warring parties under the Geneva Convention, and includes a selection of documented cases, providing vivid illustrations of the brutality inflicted on those tasked with providing medical care on the battlefields of World War One. It serves as a chilling reminder of the human cost of war and the importance of upholding humanitarian principles.
