Who were the American women who traveled to the ancient land of Modern Persia? Not diplomats. Not adventurers. Nurses. They built hospitals, opened the first nursing schools in the country, and gave women a professional path that would change the course of their lives.
Dr. Lydia Wytenbroek has spent years in the archives recovering this forgotten history. What she found will surprise you.
This is not a simple story of heroism. It's not a simple story of imperialism either. It's messier than that. More human than that. And right now — given everything happening in the world — it might be exactly the story we need.
