Publisher's Synopsis

American nurses during the early 1800s were - for the most part - drunks, illiterate and totally unreliable. But, inspired by Florence Nightingale's example in England, The Bellevue school in New York began to change nursing's image. This book looks at the history fo Bellevue, as well as its 'sister school', the Connecticut School for Nurses.
