Florence Nightingale

Descripción

As a child of wealth and privilege, Florence Nightingale always longed to do more for those less fortunate. She found her chance to help others when England went to war. Lantern in hand, Florence swept quietly through rooms of wounded and sick men. She often stayed up late into the night caring for her patients. With more than 60 years of service, she helped to make nursing an honorable profession, left behind safer, cleaner hospitals, and saved countless lives. - Back cover.
