- Description
- This is the story of a Canadian woman who grew up in the Eastern Townships of Quebec during the late 1800s. Distressed by the outbreak of the Great War in 1914, she wrote a plan for continuous mediation that could have brought the fighting to a halt early on, but the diplomats and heads of state failed to consider it seriously. At the international Congress of Women in the Hague in 1915 she met Aletta Jacobs. Her conversations with European officials are surprising—and most revealing. All Canadians can take pride in Miss Wales´ work for peace. It eventually led to the organization of the League of Nations and later, the United Nations, and the relatively peaceful years we have enjoyed since 1945.

- Description
- In 1915, shortly after the outbreak of World War I, more than twelve hundred women representing twelve nations journeyed to The Netherlands to plead for peace at The Hague. At this first International Congress of Women they called for 'continuous mediation' until peace was restored, and two delegations met with representatives of the warring governments. Although they did not stop the war, their proposals are still used as guidelines for most diplomatic negotiations between hostile nations. Three highly talented, progressive women led the American delegation. Jane Addams (1860-1935), the cofounder of Hull House in Chicago, won the 1931 Nobel Peace Prize for her career of public service and advocacy for peace. Emily G. Balch (1867-1961), a distinguished sociologist who taught at Wellesley College and was the longtime International Secretary of the later-founded Women's International League for Peace and Freedom, also was honored in 1946 with the Nobel Peace Prize. Alice Hamilton (1869-1970), a medical investigator and social activist, was the first woman to join the faculty of Harvard University. WOMEN AT THE HAGUE is the firsthand report by these three remarkable women of their mission for peace.
