Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book provides a thorough understanding of the immense effort undertaken by institutions and individuals across Britain to aid soldiers who had been blinded during the Great War. A major contributor in this endeavor was St. Dunstan's, a large facility in London established by Sir Arthur Pearson. This institution housed and trained blinded soldiers, providing them with skills and support to become active and independent members of society. The facility offered training in a wide range of trades and encouraged the development of new skills for the men beyond what was typically taught in similar organizations. The author details this history and the significant contributions these facilities made, giving context to the wider social changes and advancements in the treatment of soldiers with disabilities during the 20th century.
