‎London: Harrison Bookseller to The Queen 1860. FIRST EDITION early issue 8vo pp. 79 1. Original dark brown limp pebbled cloth boards boards bordered with triple blind rules front board lettered direct in gilt. Spine rather nibbled front joint correspondingly weakened boards somewhat mottled. An early printing of Nightingale’s enormously influential nursing book first published in 1860 and reprinted frequently over the following decades. This copy has ‘the right of translation is reserved’ on the title-page ads to the endpapers dated 1860 and 5 of the 6 issue points identified by Bishop & Goldie as denoting an earlier printing. The sixth issue point the corrected heading on p.73 is noted as potentially later being found in both states in copies with all other corrections made. But in this copy that ‘later’ correction is accompanied by the other five in the earlier uncorrected state - perhaps disproving the assumed priority. Bishop & Goldie 4.

Its title hardly describes its scope for it is in fact almost a treatise on nursing at large. Mrs. Gaskell in a letter of December 21 1858 wrote: 'It was so interesting I could not leave it. I finished it at one long morning sitting-hardly stirring between breakfast and dinner.' The purpose of the work was to prepare the way for the introduction of women as nurses in military hospitals and to lay down the basic principles of nursing. The subject is considered in great detail from the historical organizational and administrative points of view. Together with much that is outdated it contains a great deal of wisdom and is regarded as one of the most important of Florence Nightingale's writings. It is in this work that she lays down the Draconian code for the regulation of the nurse's life which forms such an extraordinary feature of her teaching. On the other hand it has to be realized that in 1858 the idea of a respectable woman entering a hospital as a nurse was very shocking and Miss Nightingale had to anticipate strong public opposition. 'There is nothing more dangerous than to undervalue the objections of opponents' she wrote. 'Let us give them their full weight and while firmly holding our course and trusting God to guide it draw useful cautions from the objections which we quietly and steadily confront.' Furthermore she firmly asserted in the very first paragraph that it would be desirable 'to consider all plans and rules for some time to come as in a great measure tentative and experimental.' Miss Nightingale although in many respects rigid in her ideas was nevertheless very much aware of the dangers of stagnation which she clearly perceived in later years in the blind adherence to rules of others less able and less original than herself."

‎Florence Nightingale AUTOGRAPH LETTER Signed regarding One of the first institutions to teach nursing and midwifery as a formal profession for women‎

‎Florence Nightingale was an English social reformer and the founder of modern nursing. Nightingale came to prominence while serving as a manager and trainer of nurses during the Crimean War in which she organised care for wounded soldiers. ALS London 1864. on her '115 Park Street W' stationery. To Richard Baggallay. Dated July 21 1864 Nightingale writes 4 pages in her hand 7" x 4.5". Black rule borders to pages. She writes:<br/><br/>"My dear sir I was extremely sorry to hear of your approaching resignation of the post of Treasurer of St. Thomas' Hospital. It seems to me poor St Thomas' is in such a "fix" & has so many bad friends that he ought to keep all his good ones. But I was not so much sorry as shocked & surprised to hear the language used concerning Mr. Whitfield. Those persons may rest assured that I should never have placed my Probationers at St. Thomas but that Mr Whitfield & Mrs Wardroper were there. and when St Thomas' with its ample income has not contributed one farthing to but has profited by the services of my Training School." <br/><br/>The Nightingale Home and Training School for Nurses opened its doors to trainees in July 1860 as part of the newly built St. Thomas's Hospital in London. One of the first institutions to teach nursing and midwifery as a formal profession the training school was dedicated to communicating the philosophy and practice of its founder and patron Florence Nightingale. The Nightingale Home and Training School is now part of King's College London and known as The Florence Nightingale School of Nursing and Midwifery. Important content. unknown books‎

The steamer was wrecked upon a reef two days out from Canada on July 2. All night she was beaten about & in danger of going to pieces. At day break the Captain lowered the passengers into a life boat but she drifted out to sea & again they were with difficulty saved. For a whole week till the 28th they were on an island whence an officer made his way to the nearest light house swimming two rivers which the crew would not cross or battened down in the hold of a small fish schooner without food or air in a terrific storm. On July 28 they were rescued by the Erl King Capt. Ed. Scott whose kindness we can never forget bound for Glasgow where they landed safe on Aug 9. <br /> <br />Would you allow me to return thanks for them our four Nurses in your church next Sunday <br /> <br />Their names are:  <br />Nurse Styring <br />Nurse Wilson <br />“ Cross <br />“ Webb"  <br /> <br />Might I say in any terms you would be good enough to use: <br /> <br />Florence Nightingale desires to return the most humble & hearty thanks to Almighty God for four trained Nurses returning home on duty from Canada who were wrecked on July 21 were saved three times from a watery grave & after severe sufferings for a week from exposure & hardship were rescued on the 28th by a vessel bound for Glasgow & safely landed on August 9 thro’ a merciful Providence. <br /> <br />Pray believe me Sir <br />ever your faithful servt <br />Florence Nightingale" <br /> <br />Cf.
