About The Book: This memoir presents the remarkable story of Catharine Grace Loch, a pioneering British nurse and the first Senior Lady Superintendent of Queen Alexandra’s Military Nursing Service for India (QAMNSI). In 1888, she led a mission to India to establish a professional nursing service for British troops, marking a turning point in colonial military healthcare. Honored with the Royal Red Cross, Loch’s contributions significantly shaped the standards of military nursing in the British Empire. Compiled from her personal letters, this book provides rare, firsthand insight into the early efforts to develop and elevate women’s roles in military medical service.
