This review is from: Florence Nightingale: An Introduction to Her Life and Family: Collected Works of Florence Nightingale, Volume 1 (Hardcover)
This is a great historical study, with the majority of the text dedicated to reprinting mass amounts of letters between Florence and her family and friends. Most of the letters are written by her, but there are others from her family and friends to her or about her. A great resource for those who wish to get to know what Florence Nightingale was really like in her daily life. This is also a great resource in that the editor outlines a basic biography of Florence's life, and offers footnotes throughout the book to inform the reader of who the people that Florence writes about were and their significance.
