Having already lost both Mother and later her Father, Annie enlisted in the Union Army, having wanted to become a nurse.
This is the story of her enlistment, her travels with the army, and her experiences of being at the front of the battles. Although this is a novel, it is based on true information that shows the compassionate side of a young girl who indeed was very brave to have engaged herself in the face of danger to care for the wounded. It gives the reader an insight into the every day happenings along the way and the lives she touched. A book for the young or old, it matters not. An easy read that can keep the attention of the reader, and well worth it.
