This book brings together a collection of works by scholars who
have produced some of the most innovative and influential work on
the topic of First World War nursing in the last ten years. The
contributors employ an interdisciplinary collaborative approach
that takes into account multiple facets of Allied wartime nursing:
historical contexts (history of the profession, recruitment,
teaching, different national socio-political contexts), popular
cultural stereotypes (in propaganda, popular culture) and
longstanding gender norms (woman-as-nurturer). They draw on a wide
range of hitherto neglected historical sources, including diaries,
novels, letters and material culture. The result is a fully-rounded
new study of nurses' unique and compelling perspectives on the
unprecedented experiences of the First World War.
