Field Hospital And Flying Column

The book is a collection of journal entries that Thurstan wrote while serving in Belgium and Russia in 1915.

She describes the conditions in the field hospitals, the suffering of the wounded soldiers, and the challenges of providing medical care in a war zone. Thurstan also writes about her experiences with the flying column, a group of medical personnel who traveled with the troops to provide medical care on the front lines. She describes the danger and excitement of being close to the fighting and the bravery of the soldiers she worked alongside. Throughout the book, Thurstan provides a vivid and emotional account of the war, describing the physical and emotional toll it took on both the soldiers and the medical personnel who cared for them. Field Hospital and Flying Column is a powerful and moving memoir that offers a unique perspective on one of the most devastating conflicts in human history.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
