In Crosses, Cannons & Coffins author Georgiann Baldino brings a little-known, but true, story of bravery to readers. Relatively few written records exist about women who served as nurses in America's Civil War. Few historians include women hospital workers in their manuscripts. Many history books explain the Civil War’s grand campaigns, but this article gives a human account of service rendered by Sisters of Mercy during the American Civil War. Nuns served under battlefield conditions, which made veteran commanders pause.
