About HEROIC MEASURES

In 1917, more than 22,400 American women left their homes, their families and their positions in hospitals and private homes to join the Army Nurse Corps. More than 10,000 of them sailed to foreign countries, slept in hammocks, trudged through knee-deep mud, washed their hair in their own helmets to nurse more than a million American soldiers wounded and sick from battle.

This autumn on the 99th anniversary of the declarations of war, my new novel HEROIC MEASURES debuts and tells the story of these women's dedication. Here in this blog, I supplement that reading experience with facts from my own extensive research.

Do enjoy!

Do marvel at those who served in thousands of capacities all over the world and who afterward declared that its horrors must end-and that the Great War must be "the war to end all wars."
