First edition Signed and inscribed on front endpaper "For the student's library Wheailand Hospital/ Fraternally Annette Allison, R.N. Oakland Cal., Dec. 9 1921" Original cream boards, 94 pages, 5.25 in x 7.5 in. Annette Alison writes about the need to support and recruit women in the field of nursing in the aftermath of World War I: "We have gone forward by leaps and bounds, for our profession is a new one, and the paths of the world are ours."

Boards very lightly scuffed and corners gently bumped, but otherwise in very good condition.…
