Mothers of Heroes, Mothers of Martyrs: World War I and the Politics of Grief Annotated edition

Maternal love is considered as an unconditional form of love, yet mothers have been prepared to sacrifice their children for a noble cause. This book compares the lore about mothers of martyrs in the Judeo-Christian, Muslim, and Sikh traditions with stories of World War I Canadian mothers who sacrificed their sons for the sake of justice.
