dannaemh 's review for:
My Name Is Mary Sutter
by Robin Oliveira
I really enjoyed this book but I would imagine it would have a pretty small audience.
Coming from a "Southern" family most of the Civil War era books I have read are from the Southern perspective. This was intresting to me to see the Northern side of it.
Growing up with a grandma who was an E.O.R. nurse (also took a turn as a nurse in the Canal Zone during the war), I don't mind the gore of medicine. And believe me this mook had tons of it. Pretty gross in fact! Also after having two homebirths I really am intrested in midwifery.
I felt a kinship with Mary in her desire for more and her situation holding her back. All in all I'd recommend this book, as long as they are not queesy about blood and such!
