I can't remember if this is a re-read- but it must be. It's a Scholastic book published in 1970 and I was a fool for biographies, and spent every cent I had on books through the magical Scholastic order forms the teachers would pass out. On the other hand, I'm certain I would have remembered the stellar illustrations by Mort Kunstler.

This is the first time I've read a Nightinale bio as an adult. Florence sure was hemmed in by her times, and many of the situations described just made me sad. One wonders, given the huge accomplishments she achieved with all the constraints, what she might have done without. The war scenes were horrific, perhaps because I brought an adult sensibility to them.

Anyone know of a good modern bio of Nightingale? I think I'd like to read one for grown-ups.

A beautiful collection of artwork by one of the premier Civil War artists. The next best thing to being able to view the original works themselves. Collection captures the essence of the war's early years.
