During a visit to the Nightingale home at Lea Hurst, the authors discovered correspondence between Florence Nightingale and a former servant's wife. Much of her correspondence that has been studied was to well-known people regarding major issues of public concern. This correspondence reveals Nightingale's concern for people of all stations in life. Nightingale's caring concern and strong religious faith are evident in each letter. These letters provide evidence of Nightingale's lifelong commitment to the people of her youth, regardless of their status in life.
