First edition and an attractive copy of this uncommon title on the Liverpool Nurse's Training School, published in the same year that it was formally established under Nightingale's influence.
'The Liverpool Training School and Home for Nurses was founded by William Rathbone in 1862, after consultation with Miss Nightingale. This was the beginning of a long and fruitful association which was to result in the organization and development of district nursing and workhouse infirmary nursing, both of which were first tried out in Liverpool, and later extended to other parts of the country' (Bishop & Goldie, Florence Nightingale: A Bio-Bibliography, p. 28).

Bishop & Goldie, Florence Nightingale: A Bio-Bibliography, pp. 27-28.
