- Description
- Ellen N. La Motte (1873-1961) and Mary Borden (1886-1968) are two of the best-known American nurses who wrote about their experiences working in the same field hospital on the Western Front during World War I. Higonnet selected three texts from La Motte's The Backwash of War and Borden's The Forbidden Zone.
