The main character, Mary Sutter, is a young woman with an excellent reputaion as a midwife; yet, she yearns to become a doctor/surgeon at a time when it is an impossible goal for a woman. The story starts at the beginning of the Civil War and much can be learned about the war strategies, medical practises, and atmosphere of the country at that time. It contains history lessons, medical background, and a love story. Very well written.
