Description
HOME-BOUND RICH GIRL TO FOUNDER OF MODERN NURSING Florence Nightingale was born into one of the wealthiest families in England, yet shackled. Her parents offered her only one option to leave her Victorian home: marriage into another great aristocratic family. After many years of struggle she escaped into nursing during the Crimean War and there her genius revolutionized nursing care. Every woman in the British Empire envied her, especially Queen Victoria. Florence was better at what she did than any other person on the planet. Back in England she penned her detailed concepts of modern nursing in a modestly titled ‘Notes on Nursing’. The book is a classic in nursing. “achievements of Florence Nightingale look even better on the centenary [2010] of her death than at any time during her life...” Lynn McDonald “extraordinary administrative genius”, “first-class intellect...and above all the imagination to see what needed to be done...” Monica Baly - from Amzon
