In 1945, Elsie C. Bechtel left her Ohio home for the tiny French commune of Lavercantiere, where for nearly three years she cared for children displaced by the ravages of war. This book, based her diary, oral testimony, and archival research, draws on these various contexts to establish the complexity and significance of pilgrimage and humanitarian service as intercultural exchanges.
