Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The War Between the States had the by-product of great advancement in the knowledge of medical care, especially in victims of trauma. It also made for great strides in the development of the profession of Nursing. When the war began in 1861, no organized medical corps, field hospital services, or military nurses existed. Neither were there any nursing credentials. The label, "nurse," was ambiguous, and could mean an officer's wife who went with her husband to the battlefield, a woman who came to care for a wounded son or husband, and stayed to care for others, or a member of a Catholic religious community that performed works of mercy, including the nursing of the sick. It was with the Sisters of Mercy in Memphis Tennessee that our heroine received her first training.While you may have heard of Clara Barton, Dorothea Dix, or even Kate Cumming, you may not have heard of Ella King Newsom. This is the story of a heroic and unselfish woman whose devotion to the cause of the sick and suffering soldiers of the Confederate army, richly deserves to be called the "Florence Nightingale of the South." While a Southerner and supporter of the Confederate cause, Mrs. Newsom made no distinction between the North and the South when it came to nursing the wounded and sick. This book was written by a former Union Volunteer whom she had comforted and nursed while he was in his teens. Never forgetting her tender care, he, when learning of her misfortunes in later life, determined to help provide for her. This book was part of that project. It deals primarily with the Western Theater of the War.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Florence Nightingale, of the Southern Army: Experiences of Mrs. Ella K. Newsom, Confederate Nurse in the Great War of 1861-65 In the compilation of this narrative an attempt has been made to present a sketch of a devoted Christian woman who did her duty faithfully as she saw it. No effort has been made to give a false coloring to any of the pictures exhibited, but to present a straightforward narrative collected from imperfectly preserved data. The writer incorporates here a part of what he wrote for the American Tribune of Indianapolis in 1895. "Viewed from the standpoint of a Northern resident and a participant in the Union Army for the defense of the nation, the effort to establish a Southern Confederacy was not only a physical and a moral impossibility, but its success, had it been accomplished, would have been a dire calamity even to those who were supposed to be the greatest recipients of benefits. This belief, however, does not detract in the least degree from according sincerity of purpose, evidence of the highest bravery and consecration, and the most unselfish devotion to those involved on the other side of the bloody controversy.

Book Florence Nightingale  The Crimean War

Download or read book Florence Nightingale The Crimean War written by Lynn McDonald and published by Wilfrid Laurier Univ. Press. This book was released on 2011-02-01 with total page 1096 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Florence Nightingale is famous as the “lady with the lamp” in the Crimean War, 1854—56. There is a massive amount of literature on this work, but, as editor Lynn McDonald shows, it is often erroneous, and films and press reporting on it have been even less accurate. The Crimean War reports on Nightingale’s correspondence from the war hospitals and on the staggering amount of work she did post-war to ensure that the appalling death rate from disease (higher than that from bullets) did not recur. This volume contains much on Nightingale’s efforts to achieve real reforms. Her well-known, and relatively “sanitized”, evidence to the royal commission on the war is compared with her confidential, much franker, and very thorough Notes on the Health of the British Army, where the full horrors of disease and neglect are laid out, with the names of those responsible.

Book Letters of a Civil War Nurse

Download or read book Letters of a Civil War Nurse written by Cornelia Hancock and published by U of Nebraska Press. This book was released on 2022-01-13 with total page 214 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: She was called "The Florence Nightingale of America." From the fighting at Gettysburg to the capture of Richmond, this young Quaker nurse worked tirelessly to relieve the suffering of soldiers. She was one of the great heroines of the Union. Cornelia Hancock served in field and evacuating hospitals, in a contraband camp, and (defying authority) on the battlefield. Her letters to family members are witty, unsentimental, and full of indignation about the neglect of wounded soldiers and black refugees. Hancock was fiercely devoted to the welfare of the privates who had "nothing before them but hard marching, poor fare, and terrible fighting."
