The Red Cross and Jane Arminda Delano is a biographical account of the life and work of Jane Arminda Delano, a pioneering figure in the American Red Cross. Written by Mary E. Gladwin, the book traces Delano's career from her early days as a nurse in Michigan to her rise to prominence as the head of the Red Cross Nursing Service during World War I. Along the way, readers are introduced to the challenges and triumphs that shaped Delano's life, including her tireless efforts to improve the quality of nursing care in the United States, her work with the Red Cross in Europe during the war, and her untimely death from pneumonia in 1919. Through interviews with Delano's colleagues and contemporaries, as well as extensive archival research, Gladwin provides a detailed and engaging portrait of one of the most important figures in the history of American nursing and humanitarianism.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
