  'Unless I am allowed to tell the story of my life in my own way, I cannot tell it at all.'
  
  Published in 1857, Wonderful Adventures of Mrs. Seacole in Many Lands was the first autobiography written by a Black British woman, depicting Seacole's extraordinary journey to becoming a nurse in the Crimean War.
  
  In this trailblazing memoir or courage and compassion, Mary Seacole – a Jamaican-born nurse and entrepreneur – chronicles her remarkable life and career as a nurse and healer. With unwavering determination, Seacole voyaged from the Caribbean to Panama, and ultimately the frontlines of the Crimean War, caring for wounded soldiers while running her business, the 'British Hotel' – a haven for those fighting in the war. Both a vivid travelogue and a powerful testament to one woman's bravery, Wonderful Adventures of Mrs. Seacole in Many Lands is an inspirational tale of a truly pioneering life.
  Mary Seacole (1805 – 1881) was a British nurse during the Crimean War. Born in Jamaica to a Creole mother, she is famed for publishing the first autobiography written by a Black woman in the UK. In 1990, Seacole was awarded the Jamaican order of merit.

  Bram Stoker: The True Story of...

  “A dog began to howl somewhere in a farmhouse far down the road, a long, agonized wailing, as if from fear. The sound was taken up by another dog, and then another and another, till, borne on the wind which now sighed softly through the pass, a wild howling began, which seemed to come from all over the country, as far as the imagination could grasp it through the gloom of the night.” 
   
  With howling dogs, a shimmering moon and a chill wind through a darkened landscape, these words could only come from one novel; the great horror classic, Dracula, penned by the Irish born writer Bram Stoker. 
   
  The name Dracula strikes fear whenever it is mentioned, such is the power of this novel, about a monstrous vampire that feeds on human blood. The character of Count Dracula himself has become as legendary as the hideous Frankenstein’s monster in the history of horror, while the story of Dracula has been used time and again in films, dating back to the early 20th Century and the silent movies, right up to the present day and the post millennium Hollywood blockbuster. 
   
  But, what of the author of this gruesome novel of blood lust? Who created this tale of the living dead sucking every last drop of blood from their unsuspecting victims? In precisely the same way that Mary Shelley is little recognized for Frankenstein, the novel she created when she was a mere 18-years old, the author of Dracula, Bram Stoker is a similarly overlooked figure in the world of literature.

  My sister spent her last years in a rest home and I visited her every Monday. She asked me, whether I had thought about writing another book, and I said yes - in fact I have the first two words: "Yes Sister" 
  When I got home, I thought I should get on and write the book, so my sister would be able to enjoy it. I wrote a chapter each week until the book was finished. I took each new chapter to my sister week by week. The topic of the book is my life story from the time I started nursing in 1947 until the birth of our third child in 1956.I added the pencil sketches later.
