Editorial Reviews
Review
"This biography of Eglantyne Jebb, who established the charity to look after children in the chaos that followed the end of the First World War, brings to life a charismatic woman who changed the way the world treats children." --Waterstone's Books Quarterly
"[An] admirably researched biography ... Clare Mulley has done Eglantyne proud. Her informative and sensitively written biography will put SCF's founder, and through her SCF itself, well and truly on the global map." --Church Times
"This is a valuable account of a forgotten life" --The Times
