Published in 1867, this record gathers sketches of more than a hundred Northern women who served during the war: Dorothea Dix as superintendent of nurses, Clara Barton, Helen Gilson and others who nursed in camp, field and hospital, and the organisers of the Sanitary Commission and soldiers’ aid societies at home.
An invaluable early record of the women whose work transformed American nursing and relief. Download the free EPUB.
