Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Mother Bickerdyke: Her Life and Labors for the Relief of Our Soldiers, Sketches of Battle Scenes and Incidents of the Sanitary Service History has usually been written in the glare of battle-fields, to extol the name of kings and heroes, while the little rills from the heart that flowed into the abodes of want and wretchedness, stanching bleeding wounds and drying the falling tear, have been too often overlooked. The world is not rich enough to neglect the touching story of Florence Nightingale in the Crimea, or of the hundreds of Florence Nightingales whose sweet and tender ministries softened the grim features of the civil war. And no one of that host of tender-hearted women who went out under the auspices of the Sanitary or Christian Commission rendered more valuable service in the hospitals than Mary A. Bickerdyke. Such is the united testimony of those great soldiers, Grant, Sherman, Logan, Pope, and Miller, all of whom knew her well. But she needs no testimonials, for her name and noble deeds are still fragrant in the memory of the officers and soldiers of the Western armies.
