With the Doughboy in France: A Few Chapters of an American Effort, written by Edward Hungerford in the early 20th century, chronicles the American Red Cross's humanitarian efforts during World War I. The book details the organization's preparation for the war, beginning even before the U.S. entry in April 1917, and highlights the challenges faced by volunteers aiding American soldiers, known as 'doughboys,' in France.
