Book excerpt: Stimson (1881-1948) was an American nurse who, among others, has been credited for bringing nursing to the status of a profession. She received her bachelor's degree from Vassar College in 1901 and a degree from the New York Hospital Training School for Nurses in 1908, after which she held a number of administrative posts in New York City and Missouri where she received her master's degree from Washington University in St Louis in 1917. She volunteered for military service in April 1917 and as superintendant of the Army Nurse Corps during WWI became the first woman to attain the rank of Major in the US Army. She was awarded the US Distinguished Service Medal and the Royal Red Cross. Though she retired from the Army in 1937, Stimson returned after the outbreak of WWII as chief of the Nursing Council on National Defence and recruited a new generation of women to serve as nurses. She was promoted to full colonel in 1948 shortly before her death, and also served as President of the American Nursing Association from 1938-44. This collection of her letters home whilst serving in France during WWI was first published in 1918 and includes a photographic portrait of the author.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Finding Themselves: The Letters of an American Army Chief Nurse in a British Hospital in France These letters were written as the daily record of the work of a Unit of Red Cross nurses who were sent to France in May, 1917, in response to the request of the British authorities. The Unit, almost immediately after its arrival in Eng land, was sent across the Channel to take over a British Base Hospital established on a race course, where they have cared continuously for a stream of from eight hundred to two thousand wounded Tommies at a time.

Download or read book Women and War [2 volumes] written by Bernard A. Cook and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2006-05-19 with total page 842 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this unique encyclopedia, 120 leading scholars from around the world provide comprehensive treatment of the role of women in war, from the first written history to the present. This authoritative encyclopedia presents the work of leading scholars from all over the world to give the first detailed coverage of the role of women in wars throughout history. Histories of war are typically histories of men: great leaders and heroic fighters. Yet the roles of women often receive only limited coverage. Except for such notables as Joan of Arc, traditional histories give short shrift to women as leaders and fighters. Similarly, the direct victimization—particularly sexual abuse as a weapon of terror and domination—and cultural dislocations women suffer in war float as background, without detailed coverage. This work represents a first, devoted in its entirety to thorough examination of all aspects of women in war. For the first time, readers have a single source for information on the scope of women's role in war, and war's effects on them.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This electronic version has been made available under a Creative Commons (BY-NC-ND) open access license. The First World War was the first ‘total war’. Its industrial weaponry damaged millions of men and drove whole armies underground into dangerously unhealthy trenches. Many were killed. Many more suffered terrible, life-threatening injuries: wound infections such as gas gangrene and tetanus, exposure to extremes of temperature, emotional trauma and systemic disease. In an effort to alleviate this suffering, tens of thousands of women volunteered to serve as nurses. Of these, some were experienced professionals, while others had undergone only minimal training. But regardless of their preparation, they would all gain a unique understanding of the conditions of industrial warfare. Until recently their contributions, both to the saving of lives and to our understanding of warfare, have remained largely hidden from view. By combining biographical research with textual analysis, Nurse writers of the great war opens a window onto their insights into the nature of nursing and the impact of warfare.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: American women did more than pursue roles as soldiers, doctors, and nurses during World War I. Mobilizing Minerva: American Women in the First World War reveals women's motivations for fighting for full citizenship rights both on and off the battlefield. The war provided chances for women to participate in the military, but also in other male-dominated career paths. Intense discussions of rape, methods of protecting women, and proper gender roles abound as Kimberly Jensen draws from rich case studies to show how female thinkers and activists wove wartime choices into long-standing debates about woman suffrage and economic parity. The war created new urgency in these debates, and Jensen forcefully presents the case of women participants and activists: women's involvement in the obligation of citizens to defend the state validated their right of full female citizenship.

Download or read book Easing Pain on the Western Front written by Paul E. Stepansky and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2019-12-12 with total page 245 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: World War I is regarded as the first modern war, driven by fearful new technologies of mechanized combat. The unprecedented carnage rapidly advanced military medicine, transforming the nature of wartime caregiving and paving the way for modern nursing practice. Drawing on firsthand accounts of American nurses, as well as their Canadian and British counterparts, historian Paul E. Stepansky describes nurses' encounters with devastating new forms of injury--wounds from high-explosive artillery shells, poison gas burns, "shell shock," the Spanish Flu. Comparing nursing practice on the western front with nursing care during the American Civil War, the Spanish-American War, and the Anglo-Boer War, the author is especially attentive to the emergent technologies employed by nurses of the Great War.
