Description
As the daughter of wealthy parents, Florence received a good education. In the 19th century, that was the basis for a good match. But Florence did not want to get married; she wanted to become a nurse to help other people. When the Crimean War broke out in 1853, she went to a military hospital in Constantinople. Most of the soldiers there died not from their injuries, but from the poor hygiene in the hospital. Her goal was to remedy this deficiency. And in doing so, she triggered a revolution in the health care system. She became the "mother of modern nursing."
Little People, Big Dreams tells the impressive life stories of great people: each of these personalities, whether artist, pilot, athlete or scientist, has achieved the unimaginable. And yet it all began when they were still small: with big dreams.
