3.0
Regardless of the level of personal myth-making, this memoir provides an account of one experience of the Crimean War, and paints a self-portrait of an extremely determined and altruistic woman, who, despite personal slights, financial difficulties, and unfortunate circumstances, worked hard to do her part for her country. She does not claim to have a perfect memory looking back on these events, but nevertheless the collected anecdotes show a very human warmth even in the dark space of war.
