About this book
Pamela D. Toler tells the true stories of women who nursed during the Civil War, including those who worked at Mansion House, a hotel in Alexandria, Virginia, converted into a wartime hospital.
Nurses such as Dorothea Dix, Mary Phinney, and Anne Reading faced hardship, illness, and resistance to female volunteers. The book follows the real lives behind the television series Mercy Street and the way nursing changed under wartime pressure.
