| 520 | |a The untold story of the British Army Nursing Service during The Great WarGBS_insertPreviewButtonPopup(['ISBN:9780748679119','ISBN:9780748679126']);Constructed from unpublished official and unofficial documents, letters and diaries of the time, this important volume tells the much-neglected story of the Queen Alexandra’s Imperial Military Nursing Service (QAIMNS) during the First World War. Yvonne McEwen’s ground-breaking original research moves away from the long-held, uncritical, and overly-romanticised views of First World War nursing and addresses the professional, personal and political consequences that arose for nurses in the pivotal years from 1914 to 1918. This centenary volume is a vital contribution to the historiography of British military care-giving throughout this period and to the history of the Great War more generally. Key Features:Examines the complexities of care-giving and professional developmentHighlights the political controversies over inadequate casualty care arrangements Addresses the relationship between trained and volunteers nursesDiscusses the physical and psychological health of nurses on active service Lists the deaths within the ranks of nursing servicesCites Military Honours awarded to nurses" | ||
