From a review on the back cover by James Mc Pherson, ""Clara Barton was truly a woman of valor in the Civil War, and Stephen Oates has written the full story of her courage and dedication to healing the wounded for the first time. This book provides the best description of Civil War medicine and battlefield hospitals that I have ever read. The vivid writing brings the reader into the midst of the sights, sounds, even the smells of war.""
