Florence Nightingale

For me this was a hagiography of Florence Nightingale, and not a very well written one. It made an attempt to sensationalise every event and to build up the subject, and is critical of every other character - even her main supporters were described as lazy and ineffective. In spite of the sensationalising, the content was for the large part uninteresting (to me at least), and I was far from taken by the writing style which I struggle to even describe. It may be the age of the writing (this Penguin 60 content is taken from a book called Eminent Victorians published in 1918), but I don't know.
Really, I don't want to spend more time on a review of a book I didn't enjoy reading...
I will say at an average rating of 3.78, I am not sure what others ae seeing that I missed.
