DescriptionThis book describes the Transfusion Services during the Second World War and was written at the time to show the British public why it was so important for the country to donate blood. It gives encouragement to the public when it says, "Before this world war is over, many thousands more must make their gift of blood. One out of every ten men wounded will need blood given by civilians in Britain; and thousands of lives will be saved."
