Item description from seller

628 pages. Maps. Generously illustrated with black and white reproductions of archival photos. A large and wonderful compilation of brief biographies of Canadian military nurses. "The [nursing] sisters speak of endless convoys of wounded, the long hours under canvas, no lights or running water, the heat and the cold, the rain and the mud. The sisters of the RCN recall that their sailor patients not only suffered grievous wounds but were often soaked in oil and exposed to the rigours of the North Atlantic. Airmen, survivors of crashes, faced painful months of reconstructive surgery to dreadful burns. Their care required all the ingenuity, support and patience the RCAF sisters could muster." - Foreword. Unmarked with somewhat above-average wear. Binding intact. A sound reference copy. Several related pages from Canadian Legion Magazine laid-in. Cooke [3] p.43. [Please note: we are offering Volume I only].
