About the event
1854 – The Crimean war!
A time and place when men know best!
Medical procedures are done with panache: “Bang and the wound is gone” (along with most of the patients), but the surgeons look impressive and that’s what matters………..
Hold on a moment!
Who’s this upstart in a skirt?
She talks back, can add up and makes us wash our hands!
How very dare she?
