WWI Nurse Edith Cavell’s Fate: Decision or Destiny

November 17, 2016 @ 12:15 pm1:00 pm
| Cost: $4 | Cost for Members: $2

Edith Cavell was a British nurse who was caught in the cross hairs of history. Defying the brutish German army in Belgium, she became a key link in the underground rescuing Allied soldiers. Her execution rallied the Allies into forming a more forceful defiance and ultimately brought the US into the war. Was Edith destined to sacrifice her life for this cause or did she make the wrong decision?
