The idea of progress...



Dr. Mary Walker was a feminist, abolitionist, dress reform advocate (she nearly always wore pants, as women's clothing was too restrictive for work), suffragist and Civil War doctor. 
She was a doctor when female physicians were practically unheard of, and she was the first female surgeon in the US Army.
