Inez Tuck, a recent retiree from a distinguished career in higher education as a professor and administrator in public and private colleges and universities and an admirer of women who demonstrated leadership against all odds, has completed her new book "Florence and Mary: Nurse Leaders and Heroines of the Crimean War": a gripping and potent first book that focuses on the intersection of race, class, and gender as necessary contributors to the development and recognition of Florence Nightingale's and Mary Seacole's leadership in nursing.
Published by Newman Springs Publishing, Inez Tuck's inspirational biographies take a deep dive into the lives of two extraordinary women who have been recognized for their heroism in the Crimean War: Florence Nightingale and Mary Seacole. The book describes the significance and intersections of race, class, and gender as necessary contributors to their development and recognition as nursing leaders. It will make readers laugh while teaching them lessons about leadership that are timeless, universal, and inspirational.
Inez states, "They were nurses at a time when nursing as a profession did not exist. Their nursing actions ushered in a positive view of the nurse and the need for her recognition, training, and education. … They managed to be leaders at a time when women in leadership was rare."
Readers who wish to experience this irreverent work can purchase "Florence and Mary: Nurse Leaders and Heroines of the Crimean War" at bookstores everywhere, or online at the Apple iBooks Store, Amazon, or Barnes & Noble.
