Description

Mary Seacole spent much of her life on the front lines of the Crimean War, ministering to the wounded, caring for soldiers, and making her mark on the world of medicine.

This fascinating biography honors her life, from her childhood in Kingston, Jamaica, and her encounters with racist Americans to her treatment of cholera patients in Panama and her bitter run-in with Florence Nightingale, who declined to work with her in Crimea because she wasn't white.

But Mary Seacole knew that the sick and wounded needed her compassion and care, and despite all obstacles, she answered the call to help them.

Author Susan Goldman Rubin gives voice to this fearless nurse and healer through captivating details drawn from Mary Seacole's own writings.

Inspiring and engaging, this biography introduces a compelling heroine who rose above barriers to earn a place in history.
