I really enjoyed reading this book, it was a great pictorial history of the role of the District Nurse and it gives a good introduction to how the role came about and the importance that it has played over time since it’s introduction.

The layout of the book is easy to follow and I really enjoyed the images that had been used and their captions. It was a nice short read and a lovely way to pass a few hours.

I have read a few books in this series now and they are lovely books, this one is well written and informative. It is 4 stars from me for this one and as a lover of social history books, for me it is also one I will be highly recommending to those who enjoy the same genres.

Ein bisschen Geschichte, ein bisschen Fotos und historische Stiche - hier kommt das alles in guter Mischung zusammen, um ein spannendes Stück Historie zu zeichnen. Allerlei interessante Informationen rund um Krankenschwestern, nicht nur über Florence Nightingale, mit Abbildungen von zeitgenössischen Dokumenten. Ein lebendiges Stück Zeitgeschichte.

A very informative book for someone who is interested in nursing background and especially that of a district nurse.
