Florence set out for the Crimea to nurse soldiers injured in the war. Nothing could have prepared her for the horror of the army hospital and the doctors didn't approve of women and plotted to send her away. But Florence was not to be beaten. She was going to change nursing forever!Short Books is re-releasing some of its finest writing as a newly designed series of six children's biographies called The Great Victorians.
