About this listen

The name of Florence Nightingale is a household word, but the exact nature and scope of her work, and the difficulties and discouragement under which it was accomplished, are unknown to many in the present generation. This story of that justly beloved woman’s life is told by one whose father was in part responsible for Miss Nightingale’s decision to devote her life to nursing. Written with a rare sympathy and beauty of style, this uplifting account of a noble life will inspire young and old alike.

This is a story delicately told to children
Written in the early 1900’s in USA
It is of it’s time.
It portrays the heroic tale of Florence, inspiring dedication,
Independence of thought and the futility of war.
