J. Henderson's 1918 collection, In War and Peace: Songs of a Scotswoman,[6] some of which are based on her experiences in Serbia, with the Scottish Women's Hospitals for Foreign Service, namely it is a 'vision of war seen from the inside, and finding expression through the woman-poet's mind'.[8] "Pluck" also found its way into printed anthologies such as The Cambridge Companion to the Literature of the First World War,[9] and was even set to music.
