"A Nurse at The Front The First World War Diaries of Sister Edith Appleton"

I am extremely grateful to Sonia Bidwell the textile artist/storyteller based in Scotland (see left for examples of Sonia's work) for sending me a copy of the book edited by Ruth Cowen, Edith Appleton's great niece.

I look forward to reading this very much when I have finished preparations for the exhibition panels that are to go to Stow Maries WW1 Aerodrome in Essex.  I hope to review the book once I have read it - having 'dipped in' it looks extremely interesting.
