My Name Is Mary Sutter by Robin Oliveira

4.0

This was a really good book. It is set during the Civil War and Mary Sutter is determined to become a Surgeon. She is a renowned midwife in Albany NY but wants to learn more. Her struggle intensifies when war breaks out and she finds herself working as a nurse in Washington DC with waves of wounded coming in. It’s a grisly time and she learns through her experiences in spite of women not being allowed to become surgeons.
I had read book #2 (Winter Sisters) before this one and I really enjoyed it as well.
