The review continues:
“The story has a strong, riveting current that pulls the
reader under. Gwen is a plucky, determined sharp-shooter that questions
surgeons and army officials alike. She and the nurses by her side set a
beautiful example for readers of the true essence of nursing. This is who
nurses are, this is what nurses do.
“Heroic Measures” is a worthy
portrait of nursing life, both in the French battlefields of World War I and in
the United States at the turn of the century. And Gwen Spencer and her fellow
nurses are a testament to the young women who risked literal life and limb, in
the name of duty, to save those wounded in battle.
