Description
While Florence Nightingale is herself famous, the bulk of her considerable writings remain unknown to the general public. In this volume, the editor attempts to provide texts that have largely been overlooked outside of the small audiences to which they were originally presented. Arranged in chronological order with a minimum of editing to the actual content, this collection provides the reader with Nightingale’s thoughts on the theory and practice of nursing and nurse training. Compiled by Lucy Ridgely Seymer. A very good copy, corners a bit worn, covers slightly scuffed, without dust jacket.
