Summary Biography of Florence Nightingale
Biography of Florence Nightingale Florence Nightingale was a Victorian-era English woman who greatly improved the care of sick and dying soldiers during the Crimean war. She was the lady carrying a lamp as she made her way through the dark and damp halls of a make-shift hospital where hundreds of men lay inches apart in unspeakable conditions. She was the heroine of the Crimean war, returning to England and avoiding every attempt at fame as she quietly withdrew and secluded herself from mainstream society. Her efforts to remain anonymous were so well orchestrated that, when she died at the age of 90, many were surprised to know that she was still alive, thinking she had died decades earlier
