In 1847-48 Florence Nightingale, at that time a young woman of 27 and unknown to the world, accompanied Mr. and Mrs. Charles Bracebridge, who were wintering in Rome for health reasons. During that time she wrote over 50 letters to her family & friends describing the sights she had seen, the people she had met, & the political changes which were exciting Rome at this springtime of the risorgimento. She had actually been born in Florence, Italy (for which she was named) in 1820, while her family was spending several years on the Continent. This volume presents Florence’s letters in four sections: en route to Italy; Rome; Paris, on the way home; & letters to Mr. Colyar. 16 illustrations.
