Abstract

The aim of this paper is to further consider American relief work in Serbia, mainly based on a number of reports made by eyewitnesses, American citizens and humanitarians who stayed in Serbia at the beginning of WWI. Special attention will be paid to Red Cross publications, which shed light on the role of nurses in American humanitarian activities in the Great War during the period of neutrality until 1917. American nurses perceived Serbia as a land of peasant soldiers, which was rav- aged during the previous wars of 1912–1913, without any chance of renewal
