Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book offers a unique and intimate glimpse into the experiences of a group of American Red Cross nurses who served in a British Base Hospital in France during World War I. The author, a Chief Nurse, chronicles her journey from initial mobilization in St. Louis to her arrival in France and eventual deployment to a bustling, makeshift hospital on a racecourse. Through the author's vivid letters, the reader is transported to the heart of the conflict, experiencing firsthand the emotional and physical toll of war on those serving on the front lines. The author's poignant observations illuminate not only the challenges faced by the nurses, but also the profound impact of their work on both the wounded soldiers and the wider social fabric of wartime England. The book ultimately reveals the extraordinary spirit and resilience of these women as they navigated uncharted territory, providing essential care amidst a tide of suffering, and shaping the role of women in a rapidly changing world.
