Description
This is an account of Flora Scott, a Leicester nurse, who volunteered to join Lady Paget's Hospital in Skoplje, Serbia in 1915, based on her own letters and autobiographical notes. It is also the story of Lady Paget herself and the small band of mainly British doctors and nurses who were caught up in the upheaval of the Austro-Hungarian invasion, typhus epidemic and subsequent occupation by the Bulgarians. Here is a vivid picture of life in a beleaguered hospital, beset by shortages and the demands of an overwhelmed population and country. It is also a tale of humanity and of friendships across the wartime divide. It is told through eyewitness accounts of hospital staff and other British observers. Biographical details of those witnesses and of other medical staff are included.
