1889 Mary Livermore Story of Civil War NURSING Hospital Women Union FEMINISM



Mary Livermore was an American author during the Civil War, who recorded the events of her work during the war, particularly her role as a nurse. She cared for wounded soldiers in camps and hospitals. This late 19th-century edition of her Story includes interesting illustrations of battle scenes, portraits, and camp and hospital life, as well as lists and descriptions of battle-flags.



Nevins notes of this work:

“well-known, valuable reminiscences; especially good for accounts of military hospitals and relief work.”



Per Eicher,

“Livermore describes many stories of women in the war, stressing their crucial contributions, such as Anna Ella Carroll, Madame Turchin, etc…”
