DESCRIPTION
Clara Barton, organizer of the American Red Cross, recounts how she and that organization responded to reports of a famine in Texas in 1885 and 1886.
Reports of a drought in Texas and consequent suffering were contradictory and varied. Barton used first-hand investigative tactics and savvy communication and political skills to help propel relief efforts.
