The honourable women of the Great War : and The women's (war) who's who /[edited by] P. Campion. Originally published in 1919, this facsimile reproduction records the wartime contribution of (as the Foreword describes it) 'women of distinction, of gentle birth and cultured tastes [who abandoned] gladly the ease and amenities of their sheltered lives to devote days and nights to strenuous, rough and unaccustomed work, in order that our scarred and maimed fighting men home from the battle fronts might be given the care and attention which was their due.' Brief biographical details of over two hundred women are provided along with a summary of their wartime work often with the Voluntary Aid Detachment (VAD). Photographs accompany many of the biographies. A list of all women receiving the Royal Red Cross Decoration for nursing services is also included with the name of the hospital in which they worked. A further list of the names of women brought to the notice of the Secretary of State for valuable services rendered in connection with the war is also provided, also with details of the hospital in which they worked. 2013. • FOLIO • 1 copy available. 940.315-055.2

Controlling immigration : a global perspective /edited by James F. Hollifield, Philip L. Martin, and Pia Orrenius. "The third edition of this major work provides a systematic, comparative assessment of the efforts of a selection of major countries, including the U.S., to deal with immigration and immigrant issues - paying particular attention to the ever-widening gap between their migration policy goals and outcomes. Retaining its comprehensive coverage of nations built by immigrants and those with a more recent history of immigration, the new edition pays particular attention to the tensions created by post-colonial immigration, and explores how countries have attempted to control the entry and employment of legal and illegal Third World immigrants, how they cope with the social and economic integration of these new waves of immigrants, and how they deal with forced migration."--Provided by the publisher. 2014. • BOOK • 1 copy available. 325/.1
