Beskrivelse

Explore the extraordinary life of Dr. Elsie Inglis, a pioneering physician and suffragist from the late 19th and early 20th century. Dr. Inglis, defying societal norms, opened a hospice in Edinburgh dedicated to impoverished women and children. She played a pivotal role in Scotlands womens suffrage movement and during World War I, she established the Scottish Womens Hospitals. Going against all odds, she sent 14 teams to set up field hospitals in Belgium, France, Serbia, and Russia. Captured in Serbia while tending to the wounded, she was eventually repatriated. This biography, crafted shortly after her demise in 1917, delves into her remarkable journey and selfless contributions.
