In this fascinating historical tale, two courageous women experience the Great War firsthand. Unfortunately, the book is overly long and too detailed, bogging down the pace. Two sisters from Maryland go to Belgium to help the war effort, Ruth as a nurse and Elise as an ambulance driver. Great love stories ensue for them as they suffer through the tragedies and gore of medical care of these arduous times. Ruth loves a doctor who supports her desire to become a doctor, while Elise has a secret love. As the conflict ends, readers will better appreciate the strong women that made significant contributions to the war.
