Inhoud:

In dark skirts and bloodied boots, Clara Barton fearlessly ventured on to Civil War battlefields to tend to wounded soldiers. She later founded and ran the American Red Cross. This book tells the story of this charitable organization from its start in 1881, through its humanitarian aid during wars, to its relief efforts of the 1930s.
