No overview found
Elsie Inglis and the work of the Scottish Women's Hospitals (SWH) are captivating. Elsie and the other women did not conform to the stereotype of women in war.

This meant that there were not only women doctors, rare enough in the early twentieth century but like Elsie, women surgeons.
