The story is told within the broader context of the different political, social and economic cultures from which modern nursing arose.  Although the Russians were battling industrialised armies with their pre-industrial, agrarian economy it was they who developed the most innovative system of nursing.  The book illustrates the barriers, some of which still exist today, which nurses had to overcome to gain recognition of the crucial role they played in the war.  The significant contributions allied and Russian nurses made working directly under fire during the Russians’ brilliant defence of Sevastopol make a wonderfully exciting story during which these mid-nineteenth century nurses proved their extraordinary competencies.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTrade Review\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e'As with all Helmstadter’s work, this book is written in accessible language but is supported by exemplary scholarship and has much to recommend it to those interested in this subject.'\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eThe UK Association for the History of Nursing\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e'\u003c\/i\u003e[…] an outstandingly trenchant analysis of the topic, and a highly revealing window into the world of battlefield nursing on the cusp of its modern iteration.
