This early work by Harriot Stanton Blatch was originally published in 1918 and we are now republishing it as part of our WWI Centenary Series. 'Mobilizing Woman-Power' is an excellent work that details the author's views on the role of women during the First World War. In the foreword Theodore Roosevelt writes: 'Mrs. Blatch shows why every woman who inherits the womanly virtues of the past, and who has grasped the ideal of the added womanly virtues of the present and the future, should support this war with all her strength and soul. She testifies from personal knowledge to the hideous brutalities shown toward women and children by the Germany of to-day; and she adds the fine sentence: "Women fight for a place in the sun for those who hold right above might."'
