This account follows the experiences and contributions of women, specifically Kate Finzi, as they help in the war effort, focusing on the harrowing work performed in hospitals and care facilities at the frontline. The narrative not only highlights the difficult and often chaotic conditions faced by medical staff but also offers insights into the lives of the soldiers and the impact of war on communities. At the start of the book, Finzi describes her journey from England to the war zone, detailing the mixed emotions of trepidation and resolve shared by her and her fellow nurses. As they arrive in Boulogne, they witness the transformation of the town into a bustling military base. The opening chapters capture the overwhelming challenges of providing medical care to wounded soldiers arriving in desperate need, often in makeshift hospitals where resources are scant and conditions are grim. Through her reflections, the beginning sets a poignant tone, framing the stories of camaraderie, courage, and the grim realities of war that will unfold throughout the narrative.
