Observations of an Orderly
by Ward MUIR (1878 - 1927)02 - Life in the Orderlies' Hut
Ward Muir brings us into the heart of an English war hospital, describing scenes of cleanliness, triumph, order and sadness. Through the eyes of the orderly we get to see the processes that kept the wards running, and relive some tales from within the hospital walls. (Summary by Christine Blachford)
