Documents the achievements of three leaders in Caribbean nursing at a time when the struggle for indigenous leadership in all areas of West Indian societies was occurring.The author presents a narrative of the lives of Dame Nita Barrow from Barbados, Berenice Dolly from Trinidad, and Mary Seivwright from Jamaica, three figures known throughout the region and internationally. The author's intent of writing "a small part of women's history" serves admirably to document the contributions of these outstanding Caribbean women for readers today and for future generations.
