5 out of 5 found this review helpful

If one is looking for excellent role models and hero's of the last century this is the book for you. I picked it up and had trouble putting it down. Some wonderful accounts of truly dedicated professional nurses who devoted their lives in service to their country. Read and enjoy, a well written book.


5 out of 5 stars A wonderful book about dedicated "caregivers" in harm's way   August 25, 1998

I have never read a history book which was so spell binging. I had trouble putting it down once I started reading it. There are numerous accounts of courageous people & their personal experiences in dealings with life. It is a very moving account of history that anyone can enjoy reading.


5 out of 5 stars An interesting book on women's and military history   April 22, 1998

Ms. Sterner provides an interesting foray into the History of the Navy Nurse Corps, incorporating personal interviews and accounts from the people who lived the history. This book should spark discussion and thought.


4 out of 5 stars An Intriguing Book, A Fascinating Read   April 9, 1998
"In and Out of Harm's Way" is an engrossing study in the history of the Navy Nurse Corps, told through personal narratives and first-hand accounts. Although I originally viewed the subject as being perhaps too centralized, the book will appeal to history buffs, military enthusiasists and students of women's history alike. This book should be enjoyed by generations to come.
