"My Name Is Mary Sutter" by Robin Olivieri




"My Name Is Mary Sutter" is about a young woman in the 1860's who wants to go to medical school but is not allowed.  Mary's mom is a midwife and has trained Mary to be one as well. Mary's thirst for education during a time when women were not educated and the begining of the civil war provides the backdrop for this book.  I know I always say it..but since I'm a history buff this book sounds right up my alley!!

More soon!!!
