O knihe
A novel of triumph over tragedy President Lincoln told her, "Mrs. Pomroy, when you are an old woman, please tell your grandchildren how indebted the nation is to you for holding up my hands in times of trouble." Inspired by Rebecca Pomroy's letters, journals, and recollections. Based on real people, real places, and actual events. Discover the awe-inspiring story of Rebecca Pomroy, a woman who defied all odds to change the course of history. Rebecca overcomes thirty years of debilitating grief to bring hope and healing to countless soldiers as a Civil War Army nurse. But when she is dispatched to the White House upon eleven-year-old Willie Lincoln's death, she encounters the anguish carried by the distraught parents. She must choose. Rescue the first family from despair and self-doubt to save the government from collapse or keep pledges made to "her boys" in the hospital. With unwavering determination and compassion, Rebecca devotes herself to the president's family as she cares for scores of patients in her ward. Don't miss this astonishing tale of devotion, resilience, humility, and the power of the human spirit to rise above the darkest of tragedies.
