Beyond Nightingale is the first book to explore the inception of
modern nursing from a transnational perspective, studying the
development of the new military nursing in the five Crimean War
armies. The story is told within the broader context of the
different political, social and economic cultures from which modern
nursing arose. Although the Russians were battling industrialised
armies with their pre-industrial, agrarian economy it was they who
developed the most innovative system of nursing. The book
illustrates the barriers, some of which still exist today, which
nurses had to overcome to gain recognition of the crucial role they
played in the war. The significant contributions allied and Russian
nurses made working directly under fire during the Russians'
brilliant defence of Sevastopol make a wonderfully exciting story
during which these mid-nineteenth century nurses proved their
extraordinary competencies. -- .
