While reading this book I could easily imagine myself sitting at the fireside of a colleague (Dr Rowland) as she told me stories of her life as one of the very very few female physicians practicing a hundred years ago. The book is not in chronological order but a collection of vignettes of one pioneer woman's life. The book is not politically correct, it is not about male bashing or "poor me I had to work so hard". The is an autobiography from a kind soul.
