Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Memoir of Emily Elizabeth Parsons: Published for the Benefit of the Cambridge Hospital During the late war, my daughter served in the military hospitals of Fort Schuyler in New York; Lawson Hospital in St. Louis; on a hospital steamer on the Mississippi, from St. Louis to Vicksburg; and in Benton Barracks Hospital in St. Louis, - from October, 1862, to August, 1864. This Memoir consists mainly of letters which she wrote from those places. It was prepared only for private distribution among her friends, with no intention of sale or publication. But the letters contain many details of hospital life, and of incidents of the war connected with them; and they who have read them think the book may have some interest beyond that which arises from a personal regard for the writer of the letters. An earnest effort is about to be made to establish, upon a permanent foundation, the Cambridge Hospital, instituted by her in 1867; and I have been urged, by those whose opinions I am bound to respect, and who are foremost in that effort, to permit the publication of the book for the benefit of the Hospital.
