Description
This series of easy-read biographies celebrates the lives of women who lived lives committed to changing the world for better. What set them apart? The willingness to live courageously for Christ, even in the midst of impossible situations.
In Florence Nightingale, you’ll meet “The Lady with the Lamp” who found her calling in the foul, disease-ridden medical camps of the nineteenth century British military. What set Florence Nightingale apart? Her willingness to live courageously for Christ—comforting wounded soldiers, fighting for their rights, and turning the medical world upside down by serving people who needed it most.
Get inspired by her story, celebrate her legacy, and learn that God can use each of us for mighty things. . .if we have courage.

Inspiring biography of a real-life hero. I have been nurse for over 20 years and Florence Nightingale has left a significant impression on me and my career. I am well versed in her impact on the nursing profession, and this biography does a great job of explaining this from various people’s firsthand perspectives. In addition, I was thrilled to hear of her life in her own words. Flo was an avid writer and recorded so much of her life. I was moved by her faith and steeled resolve to fulfill her calling. I was challenged by her dedication and perseverance. This is an excellent book for young women, nursing students, nurses, teachers and faculty.
I received a complimentary copy from the publisher and all opinions expressed are solely my own.
