Eight Hundred Miles In An Ambulance is a memoir written by Laura Winthrop Johnson, originally published in 1889. The book chronicles Johnson’s experiences as a nurse during the American Civil War, specifically her time working on the front lines in Virginia and Maryland. Throughout the book, Johnson provides a firsthand account of the conditions and challenges faced by medical personnel during the war. She details the physical and emotional toll of caring for wounded soldiers, the lack of resources and supplies, and the constant threat of danger from enemy fire. In addition to her experiences as a nurse, Johnson also writes about her personal life during the war. She recounts the struggles of being separated from her husband, who was also serving in the military, and the difficulties of maintaining relationships with family and friends while constantly on the move. Overall, Eight Hundred Miles In An Ambulance provides a unique and compelling perspective on the Civil War and the role of women in the medical field during that time period.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
