Clara Barton (History Maker Bios Series)
Question: How did Clara Barton save 500 wounded soldiers after a Civil War battle?

Answer: With light! She brought dozens of lanterns to light a dark farmhouse so that doctors could see to care for the troops.

  • Clara wanted to fight in the U.S. army, but she couldn't because she was a woman. Instead, she braved bullets and cannonballs to help nurse thousands of soldiers.
  • She wasn't trained as a doctor, but she once performed surgery with her pocketknife.
  • She started the American Red Cross to help victims of wars, floods, and fires, and ran it until she was 80 years old!
