Description/Notes
In the eighteenth century, a woman had few choices. If she was lucky, she received a decent education. Then she got married. In an era when women didn't work, Clara Barton was one of the nation's first career women. Not only did she work, she did a man's job and demanded a man's wage. Some said she was scandalous, but friends and family thought she was generous and charming. The wounded from the battles of the Civil War called her the angel of the battlefield.
