Review # 1 was written on 2014-02-19 00:00:00 Richard Ulam A piece of history, I enjoyed reading nursing pioneer Florence Nightingales account of nursing in a time when the profession was not widely respected or even considered to be a feasible career. The language is, of course, typical of the era of which it was written in which requires an amount of concentration by the reader to fully understand the overall message. I read this from a purely historical interest point of view while I was training as a nurse myself. It's interesting to see what aspects are still applicable to nurses today.

Review # 2 was written on 2012-10-21 00:00:00 Dan Durant I read this purely for the historical aspect of nursing. I didn't expect that I'd get a good laugh every few pages. Florence Nightingale was one sassy/sarcastic lady. Ms. Nightingale is my 18th century spirit animal. Besides the humor that I so enjoyed, it was an interesting perspective on some aspects of nursing during the 18th century. Im convinced that if every medical professional had the forethought and "common-sense" nursing perspective, as Nightingale called it, the world would be a much better place.
