Do you love historical research and wish you could read more?

Check out the 1-hour reads at Hourly History. A short biography of Florence Nightingale is among their reads. You can also sign up for free e-reads.

And remember…nursing & health history never happened (or happen) in a vacuum. Understanding the larger political, medical, geographical, adventurer, ideological, musical, art, philosophical, religious, cultural history (milieu) of any era is important, and these books can give quick insights. For example, Crimean or British leadership during Nightingale’s time will help you understand her and her contributions.

Check out one or more of these books, and let me know what you think. -DrH
