Item description from seller

First American edition, wrappered issue. Small octavo. 140, [4]pp. Owner signature of Mrs. Annie H. Kimball on front wrap, some light spotting on the wrappers and first and last leaf, lacks about the bottom third of the paper covered spine, but a sound and attractive, about very good copy in the fragile wrappers. The record of Nightingale's experiences as a manager of nurses in the Crimean War, the book was heavily relied upon during the American Civil War. The first American edition is moderately uncommon, the wrappered issue is excessively so.
