Basing their narrative on archival investigations of St. Luke's Hospital and Nurse Training School in St. Paul, Minnesota, Olson (nursing, U. of Hawaii) and Walsh (an independent historian) challenge the professionalization framework of nursing historiography. Instead of accepting the view that nursing steadily advanced in succeeding stages of knowledge-based professionalization, they see nursing as having developed amidst clashing views of the nature of nursing, with many nurses defending their work as a skills-based craft.
