{"product_id":"lingering-fever-lavonne-telshaw-camp-9780786472857","title":"Lingering Fever: A World War II Nurse's Memoir","description":"\u003cp\u003e During 1945, the author found herself in the monsoon-drenched jungles of Assam, caring for soldiers in the China-Burma-India theater of war. Nothing in her training had prepared her for the tropical diseases or the thatched-roof hospital where men spat on the floor, rats were pervasive, and patients used handguns to chase gigantic cockroaches (and wereas likely to sell their medicine as swallow it).\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe experience was made tolerable by Nurse Camp's romance with one of the airmen who flew the Hump, supplying O.S.S. troops behind Japanese lines and carrying General Joseph Stilwell's Chinese troops to fight the battle of North Burma. She accompanied her future husband on some of his missions. Based in part on letters she wrote to her parents, this is the poignant story of one nurse's experience in World War II.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Lavonne Telshaw Camp\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0786472855\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780786472857\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e McFarland \u0026amp; Company\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/18\/2012\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 184\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.48lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.40h x 5.40w x 0.50d","brand":"Lavonne Telshaw Camp","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":45898205954303,"sku":"9780786472857","price":19.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_8913f178-9a14-48e2-9bc1-b3015e9473fb.jpg?v=1721375750","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/lingering-fever-lavonne-telshaw-camp-9780786472857","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
