The book covers the real women who served as nurses and matrons during the civil war at Mansion house in Alexandria, Virginia. It delves into the hardships these women faced and the battles they fought with the Doctors and the Government. Dorothea Dix, Mary Phinny and countless other women paved the way for nursing to become respected profession.
I love learning something new, and what I learned here was that these women developed the "special diet" for patients unable to digest an ordinary meal.
This is a very readable book, and I would recommend it to anyone interested in learning the roots of nursing in America. ( )
