"The Red Cross Girls with Pershing to Victory" by Margaret Vandercook is a historical novel written in the early 20th century. The story follows a group of American Red Cross nurses during the aftermath of World War I as they accompany the troops led by General Pershing toward Germany. This engaging narrative introduces diverse characters including Mrs. Sonya Clark and her ward Bianca Zoli, along with other nurses, as they navigate their duties in a changing world and as they await their orders in a camp in France. At the start of the novel, the atmosphere in the American camp is one of relief and anticipation following the war's armistice. The scene is vividly described with soldiers relaxing, performing camaraderie rituals, and waiting for orders about the next steps in their military service. Among them are the Red Cross nurses who show determination and eagerness to provide care as they transition from wartime nursing to supporting the Army of Occupation. Central to this opening portion are the arrival of Major Hersey, who shares news of the impending move toward Germany, and the introduction of key characters who embody the spirit of service during this significant period, setting the stage for their unfolding personal journeys against the backdrop of historical events.
