From Booklist
A-Z coverage of a conflict that "promised to be just another small colonial war" and turned out to have much larger significance. Appended are primary documents, including a firsthand report, written by British antiwar activist Emily Hobhouse and controversial at the time, on conditions in the concentration camps set up as a result of British land-clearance policies. It is estimated that almost 50,000 people, most of them children, died in black and white camps. REVWR
