American Nurses in the early 1800's were for the most part drunks, illiterate and totally unreliable. Then inspired by Florence Nightingale's example in England, Bellevue Nurse Training School in New York came into being, changing the face of American Nursing. Well-to-do women in their hundreds flocked to train as nurses and gain a profession. This book talks about this era, giving details about nursing training at both Bellevue & its 'Sister School', Connecticut School for Nurses. Personal accounts of Night Duty, Visiting Nurse's Tenement work, assisting surgeons in operating theatres and visiting the mental asylums of the day are given. It also lists a nurse's perceived ideal qualities such as: 'One who is accustomed to playing lawn tennis, who can ride, skate and row, makes the best material. If she can dance is a great advantage for graceful carriage is a thing to be cultivated. If in addition to being well-formed she is favored with good looks it all the better.'

He was born blind, and had been taught the one thing which the blind generally learn, -music; for this art he was specially gifted. His mother died when he was little more than a child, and his father, who was the first cornetist of a military band, followed her to the grave a few years later. He had a brother in America from whom he had never heard; still, through indirect sources he knew him to be well off, married, and the father of two fine children. To the day of his death the old musician, indignant at his son's ingratitude, would not allow his name to be mentioned in his presence; but the blind boy's affection for his brother remained unchanged. He could not forget that this elder brother had been the support of his childhood, the defence of his weakness against the other boys, and that he had always spoken to him with kindness.
