Hospital Sketches
Publisher Description
This is Alcott's account of her experiences as a nurse during the Civil War in a Washington D.C. hospital. The sketches are taken ""from letters hastily written in the few leisure moments of a very busy life,"" and so maintain the immediacy and force of their author.

Hospital Sketches
More than "Sketches", read this beautifully written book as a small bit of history of the Civil War. L.M.A. makes the scenes come alive in your mind, submerging it into the people and settings of this little bit of heaven.
