520			_a"Woman as Army Surgeons" by Flora Murray is a historical account written in the early 20th century. The book chronicles the efforts and experiences of the Women’s Hospital Corps from 1914 to 1919, focusing particularly on their services in Paris, Wimereux, and at the Military Hospital in Endell Street. It highlights the challenges faced by women in medicine during World War I, particularly the pioneering roles of Dr. Flora Murray and her colleague, Dr. Louisa Garrett Anderson, as they worked to prove women's capabilities in surgery and administration in a predominantly male military environment. At the start of the narrative, the author sets the stage by reflecting on the societal views surrounding women’s roles during wartime. It presents the formation of the Women’s Hospital Corps and their initial engagements with the French Red Cross, as well as detailing their logistical efforts to establish a functioning hospital in Paris. The opening chapters emphasize the urgency and importance of their work in providing medical care to wounded soldiers while navigating the prejudices and bureaucratic obstacles of the military medical system. This portion of the book captures both the dedication of the women involved and the emotional resonance of their contributions as they strive to redefine women's roles in medicine during a time of war.
