Description |
A woman holds her horse steady in a stream. Her riding outfit includes a hat, jacket, blouse, and wide-hipped pants tucked into knee-high boots. The dark horse has bridle with a bit. The saddle rests on top of a blanket and the rider's boots rest in the stirrups. Trees line the bank and stones lay around the bank and in the body of the stream. Wendover, or Big House, is now a national historic landmark for its role in the Frontier Nursing Service and its attempt to professionalize midwifery. |
