St. Francis Hospital School of Nursing was an esteemed academy in Evanston, Illinois during the 20th century which offered a rigorous 3 year program for students to become registered nurses. Nursing was one of the few careers for women in the early part of the century, but the sexual revolution unexpectedly resulted in a nursing shortage, so as attitudes became more laxed for nursing students approaching the 21st century, the school was eventually forced shut it doors in 1998.
With the school on the verge of closure, Ms. Fuentes fastidiously researched the records and amassed a wealth of historical information about a bygone era in medicine. Each chapter spans a decade and the information wildly differs due to the information that was saved in the school's archives. However, each decade includes a full list of graduates, responses to polls sent out shortly before the book's publication, and memories from various students.
Presumably the work is in public domain, as the book boasts no visible copyright notice and it isn't included in the online Copyright search.
