I had a hard time putting this book down. Dr Rowland lived a full life caring for others regardless of their social class. The events she experienced both of a personal nature as well as on a national level, tested her strength to overcome and endure. She was one of very few women in the medical field when she began her career and never let the discrimination from the mostly male medical community dissuade her from her life's calling.
