Historia4 out of 5 stars 12
The amazing experiences of the Queen Alexandra nurses in the World Wars is one of the greatest adventure stories of modern times, and - incredibly - remains largely untold. Thousands of middle-class girls, barely out of school, were plucked from sheltered backgrounds, subjected to training regimes unimaginably tough by today's standards, and sent forth to share the harsh conditions of the fighting services.

Human courage under trial
Revisado: 05-04-12
What made the experience of listening to Sisters in Arms the most enjoyable?
just the stories were a reminder of how hard nurses work and try to make a difference in their work settings, and communities. Human nature of courage, unsung heroes seen in the world who never get fame or fortune, or even recognition for what human courage allows them to do. Same for other groups too not just nurses but as nurses we have very little written history to tell our story, it was good to see the stories written down.
What other book might you compare Sisters in Arms to and why?
Forest of Dean: because its about real people and their journeys.
What do you think the narrator could have done better?
She was rather dry
Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?
when the soldiers let the nurses wear trousers and warmer clothing instead of summer cotton uniforms in a cold climate...hard to imagine that was ever an issue..human rights, and occupational health and safety being so prevalent these days...
Any additional comments?
Worth the listen
