This Birth Place of Souls: The Civil War Nursing Diary of Harriet Eaton
Jane E. Schultz
Published for the first time, Harriet Eaton's nursing diary is rare among Civil War narratives. A church-sponsored relief agent, the widowed Eaton left children at home while she tended to soldiers in the field. Not one to mince words, Eaton tussled with co-workers and surgeons, illuminating the politics of military medicine and the moral challenges that beset aid workers.
