BOOK REVIEWS

Anne - It was fascinating to follow the path of this remarkable woman.. You did a great job of bringing the reader along as Alene encounters hurdles and makes courageous decisions that eventually lead to her recognition by the Navy. What a powerful role model for the nurses following her!

Barb-I started reading the book and couldn't put it down. What an interesting story about a special woman. Fascinating that it took the Navy men so long to promote a woman and nurses have been important in every war.

Gretchen - I shared the book with several other Seniors and it made for great conversations about the role of women, the various wars, the career choices for women and the Navy men.
