until 1966, it agrees factually with Sturt's account in most particulars, but its tone is far
different. Enthusiasm, grief, anger, fear and frustration are on every page.

Belgian War Relief Fund in 1916. Articles by Sir Douglas Mawson, Admiral Creswell, Winnifred
Scott, Hon. P. McM Glynn, K.c. and many others.
'Lady Galway married Sir Henry Lionel Galway. Six weeks later he was appointed governor of South
Australia and took office on 18 April 1914. Lady Galway founded the South Australian division of
the British Red Cross Society; to assist the sick and wounded, and establish a missing persons
bureau. She directed this organization until 1919, as she did the Belgian Relief Fund for which
she produced the Lady Galway Belgium Book (1916). Founding president of the League of
Loyal Women, a body that supplied comforts for servicemen, she also persuaded the Institute of
Accountants in South Australia to train sixty female bookkeepers as temporary replacements for
male clerks who had enlisted. Despite her husband's zeal in fomenting hysteria against
Australians of German descent, no one seemed to mind that she was half German. She travelled
widely, addressed hundreds of meetings, wrote thousands of letters and helped to raise over
£1,200,000 for patriotic causes. For her efforts she was awarded the Belgian médaille de la
Reine Elisabeth and the médaille de la Reconnaissance Française, and was appointed dame of grace
of the Order of St John and C.B.E. (1926). Before her departure in January 1919 (fifteen months
ahead of her husband) the State's women war-workers gave her a diamond and opal necklace.
Adelaide's leader-writers noted that her arresting personality, untiring activity and oratorical
power had enabled her to exercise a real influence over the trend of public thought, and that
she had 'raised the whole status of women in public life'. Fine. Price:
