Founder of the Red Cross and well-known Angel of the Battlefield during the Civil War, Clara Barton writes touchingly and passionately about her calling to the nursing profession. Her descriptions of her small town life in Oxford, Massachusetts detail her motivations for becoming one of the most famous nurses in American history today. The stories of her childhood, most particular the formative life moments such as helping her brother David after a life-threatening accident, demonstrate her intense passion for caring for the less fortunate.
