Cherry Ames : Chief Nurse Hardback
by Helen Wells
Hardback
Description
Cherry Ames is back, just as you remember her! The books are just as you remember them, retaining the same look, feel, and sense of adventure and patriotism as when they were first published.
With fully illustrated color covers and a soft-finished hardcover format just like the originals, these books will transport you back to the days when you were reading about this spunky young nurse.
Series editor and registered nurse Harriet Foreman was inspired by and remains a devoted fan of Cherry Ames: ""...I was going to follow in her footsteps and become a nurse - nothing else would do."" In ""Chief Nurse"", Cherry is whisked off to a new assignment on an island in the Pacific close to the battlefront - as Acting Chief Nurse!
Colonel Pillsbee thinks she is too ""young and pretty"" to successfully supervise sixty nurses and 200 corpsmen.
Can she do it? For the first time, Cherry and the nurses of the Spencer unit have to work under fire, in a makeshift tent hospital uncomfortably close to the fighting.
When the casualties pour in, the nurses and doctors work night and day, constantly under danger of attack by the Japanese.
When the other Lieutenant Ames, Cherry's twin brother Charlie, is unexpectedly stationed nearby, Charlie and Cherry piece together the mystery behind the silence of an injured pilot - which involves a secret enemy weapon.
