Historical Sources of Modern Nursing in America (ES 4-vol. set)

This facsimile reprint collection of important primary-source materials will be welcomed by historians of medicine, particularly those interested in nursing and nursing education from the nineteenth century to the beginning of the twentieth. Including many diagrams and photographs, they are also a valuable resource, not only for those working on nursing history, but also for scholars and advanced students of the history of hospitals, public health and, more generally, the role of women in America.
