Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Florence Nightingale Every one knows the popular conception of Florence Nightingale. The saintly, self-sacrificing woman, the delicate maiden of high degree who threw aside the pleasures of a life of ease to succour the afflicted, the Lady with the Lamp, gliding through the horrors of the hospital at Scutari, and consecrating with the radiance of her goodness the dying soldier's couch - the vision is familiar to all. But the truth was different. The Miss Nightingale of fact was not as facile fancy painted her. She worked in another fashion, and towards another end; she moved under the stress of an impetus which finds no place in the popular imagination. A Demon possessed her. Now demons, whatever else they may be, are full of interest. And so it happens that in the real Miss Nightingale there was more that was interesting than in the legendary one; there was also less that was agreeable. Her family was extremely well-to-do, and connected by marriage with a spreading circle of other well-to-do families. There was a large country house in Derbyshire; there was another in the New Forest; there were Mayfair rooms for the London season and all its finest parties; there were tours on the Continent with even more than the usual number of Italian operas and of glimpses at the celebrities of Paris.

Book Synopsis Florence Nightingale by : Cecil Woodham-Smith
Download or read book Florence Nightingale written by Cecil Woodham-Smith and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-19 with total page 400 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Florence Nightingale: 1820-1910 In writing this biography I have been given the opportunity of presenting what I believe to be a complete picture of Miss Nightingale for the first time. When Sir Edward Cook wrote his admirable official life immediately after Miss Nightingale's death, there was a large body of material which, for family and personal reasons, was either not available to him or he was asked not to use. He did not, for instance, see the Verney Nightingale papers; he saw only part of the collection I have described as the Herbert papers; and there was a great deal of other correspondence of which he was asked to make only a limited use. I have been fortunate enough to be given access to this material. My thanks are due, first and foremost, to Sir Harry Verney, Bart., who most generously placed at my disposal the very important Verney Nightingale papers comprising the domestic correspondence and private papers of Miss Nightingale's mother, Frances, her sister Parthenope, Lady Verney, and the Nightingale family circle. I am deeply indebted to Lord Herbert for allowing me to use unpublished material from the Herbert papers, establishing, among other important points, the true nature of the relationship between Miss Nightingale and Lord and Lady Herbert of Lea. I should like to thank the late Mrs. Salmon, Sir Harry Verney's sister, for unpublished letters and private information, and I owe very much to the late Lady Stephen, not only for unpublished letters and reminiscences, but for her kindness, too, in procuring me access to family papers. I am indebted to Sir Ralph Verney, Bart., for the correspondence of his father, Mr. Frederick Verney, with Miss Nightingale; to Sir Maurice Bonham-Carter for permission to make use of family papers; and to Mr. Leigh Smith for information of importance from the Leigh Smith papers. Sir Shane Leslie has allowed me to use two letters from his biography of Cardinal Manning, and Messrs. Hodder and Stoughton have kindly given me permission to quote extracts from letters published in Miss Elizabeth Haldane's Mrs. Gaskell and Her Friends.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Lost Commander: Florence Nightingale A rosebud set with little wilful thorns, And sweet as English air could make her, she. -Alfred Tennyson. Long years ago. A hundred and more of them, but the red brick walls and gables and chimneys of Embley stood that June day in Hampshire, and had stood for two hundred years, as they stand to-day, a picture house set in garden and forest. Two thousand acres are of its domain now, some hundreds more than there were back in the eighteen-twenties; a few changes have been made, indoors and out; but the place is cared for by wise and affectionate hands and the small alterations have left its ancient quality unspoiled. As it lifts its ruddy stateliness to-day out of the acres, above quiet English lanes which come to its park gates, as it looks to-day so it looked on the June afternoon when a little girl pushed open the door from the hall and slipped out. On a graveled walk along the terrace she turned and looked gravely up at her nurse. "Be careful, Miss Florence," spoke the nurse.

Download or read book An Angel of Mercy written by D. W. Clark and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2016-10-04 with total page 26 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from An Angel of Mercy: Florence Nightingale The most barren desert is not without its oasis, where the green grass springs up and the owers blossom. Nor is there any region so girt with ice and sand, that its desola tion is unrelieved by the lichen clinging to its native rock and greeting the eye with its verdure. So the darkest scenes of human history are often relieved by the revelation of some angel of mercy and love, commissioned for deeds that warm the heart with holy admiration. This gives us hope of our humanity, even in its darkest and most forbid ding forms. The scenes of the Crimean war in 1854 and 1855 are thus relieved by the heroic and philanthropic devo tion of one whose name will live, enrolled upon the bright page of the world's benefactors, 'long after the illustrious generals who led in the con ict have been forgotten. The death-defying charge upon the field of Balaklava has not more certainly become storied in the world's history than have the philanthropy and heroism of florence N ightingale.

Download or read book The Life of Florence Nightingale, Vol. 1 of 2 written by Edward Cook and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2019-02-02 with total page 564 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Life of Florence Nightingale, Vol. 1 of 2: 1820-1861 Next to the letters and other papers, above described, the most valuable material for the Life of Miss Nightingale is contained in her own printed writings - many of them published, some (and these, from the biographical point of view, the most important) privately printed. In the case of the Crimean War, material under both of these heads is particularly abundant. Her published Notes on Hospitals and Notes on Nursing and other works relating to those subjects, together with her privately circulated Addresses to Probationers, supplement her private records. For her inner life, her privately printed book, Suggestions for Thought, is of special importance. A List of Miss Nightingale's Printed Writings (whether published or privately circulated) is given at the end of the second volume (appendix A). My purpose in compiling this List was biographical illustration, not bibliographical minuteness. I have not included every scrap from Miss Nightingale's pen which has appeared in print, but have given every piece which is directly or indirectly referred to in the Memoir, or which is of any importance. The List will, I hope, serve a double purpose. It enables me to abbreviate in the text the references to my authorities and it provides In chronological order, a conspectus of Miss Nightingale s varied activities, so far as they were reflected in her printed writings. Lastly, there is much biographical material, not only in Blue-books and official reports, but in writings about Miss Nightingale. Except in the case of the Crimean War.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Story of Florence Nightingale: The Heroine of the Crimea The city where she was born is one of the fairest upon earth. One who visited it said: If you wish to see it to perfection, fix upon such a day as Florence owes the sun, and, climbing the hill Of Bellosguardo, or past the stages Of the Via Crucis to the church Of San Miniato, look forth upon the scene before you. You trace the course Of the Arno from the distant mountains on the right, through the heart of the city, winding along the fruitful valley toward Pisa. The city is beneath you, like a pearl Set in emerald. All colours are in the landscape, and all sounds are in the air. The hills look almost heathery. The sombre Olive and funereal cypress blend with the graceful acacia and the clasping Vine. The hum Of insect and the carol Of bird chime with the blithe voices Of men; while dome, tower, mountains, the yellow river, the quaint bridges, Spires, palaces, gardens, and the cloudless heavens overhanging, make up a panorama on which to gaze in trance of rapture, until the spirit wearies-from the exceeding beauty of the Vision.
