The Origin of the Red Cross: Un Souvenir De Solferino is a book written by Henri Dunant and published in 1911. The book is a memoir of Dunant's experiences during the Battle of Solferino in 1859, where he witnessed the horrific aftermath of the battle and the suffering of wounded soldiers. Dunant was inspired to take action and founded the International Committee of the Red Cross, which led to the creation of the Geneva Conventions and the establishment of the Red Cross as a humanitarian organization. The book provides a detailed account of Dunant's experiences and the events that led to the creation of the Red Cross. It is an important historical document that sheds light on the origins of one of the world's most well-known humanitarian organizations.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
