Book excerpt: Excerpt from Fiery Angel: The Story of Florence Nightingale I would like to have everyone read this story of Florence Nightingale. I'd like them to know that within the lifetime of many living now, there was no school of scientific nursing in the world. Millions of men died who might have lived had there been proper hospital and nursing care. I am sure that the conditions in Crimea duplicated those of every large and bloody war until the coming of Florence Nightingale. But those conditions had never been adequately described before. It was because of what Florence Nightingale did that publicity was given to the facts as they were. In 1860 the first school for teaching scientific nursing was established as the result of her agitation. During my lifetime every nation has set up such schools and now every army has some nurses to care for their sick and wounded. Certainly this elaborate care of men in the armies today shows a marvelous evolution. War has become more terrible than ever before, but nursing has evolved with it and this last great thing the author has shown in this book. Those who read it will be grateful for the blessed enlightenment it sheds. They will certainly agree that Florence Nightingale was one of the greatest of the great.
