In 1862, Louisa May Alcott took on the challenging role of a nurse in Georgetown, D.C., during the tumultuous Civil War. Through her poignant and often humorous letters home, she captured the raw realities of war and the resilience of the human spirit. These powerful accounts were later compiled into the remarkable collection known as Hospital Sketches. (Summary by Aaron Elliott)
