A Woman and the War 
Frances Evelyn (Daisy) Greville 


It is not without serious reflection that | have collected these thoughts in war time 
to offer in book form to those who may care to read and ponder them. They were 
written for the most part on the spur of vital moments, when some of the 
tendencies of the evil times through which we are living seemed to call for 
immediate protest... . 


| have sought to point out where and why and how we are moving backwards. | 
can command no eloquence to gild my words, | cannot pretend to have more to 
say than will have occurred to every man and woman of advanced views and 
normal intelligence, but it does not suffice to think; one must make thought the 
prelude of action. (Summary excerpted from the preface)
