About this audiobook
The strength that it took for Yates to do what she did for hundreds of men during the years of the Civil War is astounding. Faced with the insurmountable task of caring for so many, often with so little, she did so with the grace and kindheartedness of a saint. Her story takes you into the heart of the sick and wounded men of the war that pitted brother against brother, telling her story of the many men who could not as their voice was silenced much to early.
