If you’re looking for inspiration this Women’s History Month, get to know one of the pioneers in healthcare - Clara Barton – in this month’s COBBLESTONE Magazine.

With period photographs and stellar story writing, let COBBLESTONE Magazine transport you back to mid-19th century to the time of the Civil War. You and your kids will learn what care for wounded soldiers was like at that time and how Clara Barton revolutionized the field of medicine—and medicine in the field. And also, see how she saved the strawberry fields… forever. Plus, interactive puzzles and quizzes provide fun ways to test what your children just learned.
