About this product

Product Information

Queens and princesses have always shown care and compassion, but many went much further. They were not afraid to roll up their sleeves, work in wards or help in field hospitals and operating theatres, despite their sheltered upbringings. Through wars and revolutions across Europe, their experiences were similar to those of thousands of other nurses, but this is the first time that their involvement in nursing and the extent of their influence on the profession has been detailed in full. Beginning with two daughters of Queen Victoria - Princess Alice and Princess Helena - this book looks at the difficulties these royals faced while carving a worthwhile role in an age when the place of a well-born woman was considered to be in the home. Empress Alexandra of Russia, Queen Marie of Romania, Princess Marina, Duchess of Kent, and Princess Alice of Greece (mother of the Duke of Edinburgh) were just a few of Queen Victoria's relatives who set an example of service well beyond that considered necessary for their rank. Not all of them were fully trained nurses, but each made a positive contribution towards alleviating suffering which cannot be overestimated. 32 b/w illustrations

    Seller offered best price on ebay for this DVD. Fast mailing & item arrived safely, securely packaged & although advertised as being in VGC, is actually like new! DVD plays perfectly as described. One of the best live concerts of all time with this artist & his band! Connected the DVD player to my amp with an Optical Digital cable & sounds fantastic thru the speakers! Great communication from the seller. Another smooth and pleasant transaction experience with this professional ebayer. Thanx AA++
