WOMEN IN THE WAR ZONE (FIRST WORLD WAR) (PB)

Extracts from first-hand accounts by female medical personnel who served abroad during the First World War. Covering both the Western and the Eastern Fronts, they include nursing casualties from the Battle of Ypres, a young doctor put in charge of a remote hospital in Serbia and a nurse who survived a torpedo attack with serious injuries. Filled with stories of bravery and compassion, this is a book that honours the often unsung contribution made by female doctors and nurses.
