"[Jackson] re-creates the spirit of adventure and volunteerism, and the feelings of pride and patriotism of these military nurses through their own reminiscences."- Journal of Military History, ""[Jackson] re-creates the spirit of adventure and volunteerism, and the feelings of pride and patriotism of these military nurses through their own reminiscences.""-- Journal of Military History "A poignant collection of personal anecdotes from World War II nurses, They Called Them Angels offers accurate, firsthand narratives of what the nursing field entailed.
