New York: The Century Co, 1913. First Edition. First Edition. Very Good/No Jacket. Pfeifer, Herman. First edition. No jacket. Bookplate and ink mark on front paste-down endpaper, pencil name on front free endpaper. 1913 Hard Cover. 276 pp. Blue boards. Illustrated by Herman Pfeifer. EXCERPT: "The White Linen Nurse was so tired that her noble expression ached. Incidentally her head ached and her shoulders ached and her lungs ached and the ankle-bones of both feet ached quite excruciatingly. But nothing of her felt permanently incapacitated except her noble expression. Like a strip of lip-colored lead suspended from her poor little nose by two tugging wire-gray wrinkles her persistently conscientious sickroom smile seemed to be whanging aimlessly against her front teeth. The sensation certainly was very unpleasant. Looking back thus on the three spine-curving, chest-cramping, foot-twinging, ether-scented years of her hospital training, it dawned on the White Linen Nurse very suddenly that nothing of her ever had felt permanently incapacitated except her noble expression!

Description:
MP3 Audio CD. Written at the turn of the 20th century, Eleanor Hallowell Abbott?s White Linen Nurse is a lighthearted, hilarious romance novel that you will easily fall in love with. Although the period it was written in influences both the characters and the storyline in that it involves social expectations and mores that have since been discarded, the authentic feel of what it was like to act as a nurse in the 1910s adds even more value to this exceptional novel.While the beginning of The White Linen Nurse is somewhat slow, with what appears to be stereotypical uninteresting characters dominating the scene, you?ll soon find yourself dazzled and surprised by the unexpected plot twists and intriguing developments that Abbott?s story holds.The plot is about a nurse who grows to dislike her profession so much that each and every day spent doing her chores and duties becomes a difficult test. Despite her efficiency and the skill she obtained upon graduating as a fully-fledged nurse, she feels a definite… Read More
