Washington DC 1865. 2 page Autograph Letter Signed on one sheet bearing the letterhead of the Office of Women Nurses U.S. Hospital Service measuring 5 x 8" folded. Soiling along main fold and original mailing folds to rear. Offsetting to second page from ink on page 3. Writing at the conclusion of a bloody nine-month campaign that foreshadowed modern trench warfare medical activist and reformer Dorothea Dix gives comfort and support to a panicked father as he searches for his son missing in action. Dix writes in full: "Mr. Otto I have rec'd your letter and have through the records of various offices traced your son to a General Hospital wounded at the last Battle before Petersburg. I hope in a few days to have other information. I should suppose that some Member of his Company or the Regimental surgeon might know something. I will do all I can to learn the facts & write again shortly. Dorothea Dix" Dix had begun her medical career before the Civil War inspired by British prison reformer Elizabeth Fry to play a direct role in social welfare. The cause for which she became best known was related to American asylum reform and for petitioning the U.S. government to ensure the humane and dignified treatment of the mentally ill. By the time war broke out in 1861 Dix had become a nationally known figure and was appointed Superintendent of Army Nurses to the Union Army -- a position for which Elizabeth Blackwell the first female M.D. had also been considered. In this position Dix implemented the Federal army nursing program developing guidelines training nurses and ultimately overseeing over 3000 women Tsui. By August 1865 following the incredibly bloody Siege of Petersburg Dix resigned her position. Thus though she writes to Mr. Otto on her official letterhead the assistance she is providing him was not mandatory or conducted in an official capacity; rather she sees the grief and concern of a father whose son has gone missing and she uses her resources to provide succor and information. The Siege of Petersburg after all lasted from the summer of 1864 to the spring of 1865 forcing men on both sides to fight in trenches and resulting in an estimated 28000 dead and 42000 wounded one of whom was Mr. Otto's son Calkins. A letter with activist content capturing Dix's lifelong commitment to social activism regardless of her title or office. unknown
London: The Scientific Press 1916. First edition. Very Good . Scarce first edition of a Red Cross manual designed both for emergency workers and women in the home. Original publisher's cloth binding titled in red on spine and front board. Boards a bit rubbed and soiled corners bumped. Faint offsetting to the endpapers. Inscribed by Edith Newsome on the front pastedown: "With the Author's Compliments Edith Newsome. 16.10.23." A scarce book institutionally and in trade OCLC reports only 11 copies in libraries this being the only one currently on the market. Edith Newsome's first major work on nursing produced after she realized that her Red Cross lecture series could not provide complete enough information to train "those who have so nobly responded to the 'call of duty'; to do all that is in their power to tend and succour the brave men of our nation by proving themselves valuable and intelligent helpers." Indeed Newsome's work was released two years into World War I -- the first modern war which brought with it a horrifying number of previously unknown injuries and ailments. In addition to professional nurses women enrolled to assist as Volunteer Aid Detachments VADs because there simply were not enough women with medical educations to serve the nation's need. The present work is a stirring acknowledgement of this. Comprehensive in training VADs and new nurses in field operations it also contains information for women in the home who confronted infection illness or injury and served as domestic caretakers for men returning from the front. Very Good . The Scientific Press unknown
