The World Rebuilt
By WALTER WALSH, D.D.
The Scottish Women’s Hospital at the French Abbey of Royaumont
By ANTIONIO DE NAVARRO
Fully Illustrated.
This work represents a record of the only hospital in France run entirely by women: an abandoned abbey, built by Louis IX in 1228, transformed into an up-to-date hospital of 400 beds at the beginning of the war. The first portion is an exhaustive history of the abbey; the second portion the only complete record of the hospital achievement.
