Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Florence Nightingale, of the Southern Army: Experiences of Mrs. Ella K. Newsom, Confederate Nurse in the Great War of 1861-65 In the compilation of this narrative an attempt has been made to present a sketch of a devoted Christian woman who did her duty faithfully as she saw it. No effort has been made to give a false coloring to any of the pictures exhibited, but to present a straightforward narrative collected from imperfectly preserved data. The writer incorporates here a part of what he wrote for the American Tribune of Indianapolis in 1895. "Viewed from the standpoint of a Northern resident and a participant in the Union Army for the defense of the nation, the effort to establish a Southern Confederacy was not only a physical and a moral impossibility, but its success, had it been accomplished, would have been a dire calamity even to those who were supposed to be the greatest recipients of benefits. This belief, however, does not detract in the least degree from according sincerity of purpose, evidence of the highest bravery and consecration, and the most unselfish devotion to those involved on the other side of the bloody controversy.
