The book is really fascinating and has been put together by Edith's great nephew with Edith's words edited by Ruth Cowen. Edith's diaries were found after her death but lay undiscovered until 2008 when her great nephew, Dick Robinson. decided to get them published.
There is also a website where you can find out more about Edith and her amazing experiences as a nurse on the Western Front in the First World War - www.edithappleton.org.uk
