Great read if you like medical, post Civil War history. The fact that this woman, at 7, escaped salvaged y by being adopted by a field surgeon during the war and learned all her medical knowledge studying his ever move is incredible. To read about a strong black woman who has overcome so many challenges and is amazing at what she does is phenomenal. I started the book yesterday and couldn’t stop reading it!!

A wonderful story about the perseverance of a previous slave woman who moved to NOLA to continue her work as an undertakers assistant while the odds are stacked against her ( an unmarried black woman in a male/dominated field). Of course it has some romance thrown in too. Can’t wait to see how it ends!!

Amazing read about a young, black woman post Civil War who escaped slavery by being adopted by a battlefield surgeon and learned from him at just 7 years old. If you like historical fiction and medical drama- this is for you!! Quick read and can’t wait to see how it concludes!
