There are minor differences between the three copies and, therefore, they are not duplicates. All 3 copies arecased in original publisher's soft cloth covers. The title and author are printed in gold letters on the front cover of all 3 copies : NOTES ON NURSING. BY FLORENCE NIGHTINGALE; however there are slight differences in the typefaces.
