Caroline Winther has everything a girl in Victorian England can wish for. A kind, caring family, plenty of money, a respected name, and a loving fiancee. Her life takes a drastic change, however, with the start of the Crimean war.

Carol finds her plans to join Florence Nightingale's team of nurses roadblocked by her loved ones. A military hospital is no place for a girl of Carol's status and position in society. But Carol's family underestimate her, and when threatened she breaks with them and sets sail for Turkey, hardly prepared for what is to greet her when the ship docks.

Does Carol have what it takes to cope with the hardships and prejudice she must face as a female military nurse? And will she be able to regain the respect and love of her family?

Daughter of England is a story of courage and love set against a historical background. Through the eyes of fictional characters you can meet one of history's greatest heroines and embark on a journey with the early pioneers of nursing as we know it today.
