This book was released as part of the Charity Afire Civil War Trilogy. It was compiled by Betty Ann McNeil, D.C. from the journals and diaries of the Sister Nurses. "There are numerous extant accounts written by Daughters of Charity who served at various sites. Some kept primitive diaries, others summarized their experiences, but most wrote accounts retroactively in response to a request of the Vincentian priest, Rev. J. Francis Burlando, C.M. (1814-1873), who was director of the Daughters of the Charity province of the United States...The Civil War Trilogy-Charity Afire focuses on Maryland, Pennsylvania, and Virginia. Charity Afire offers readers compelling insights about casualty and compassion from the hearts of sister nurses who were as angels of the battlefield." (Introduction, Charity Afire: Pennsylvania)
