The Midwife: A Novel

Gay Courter

My midwife recommended this book from her library at one of my recent appts. It was such a wonderful book. It follows a girl from Germany through midwifery school and then follows her journey to the states. It is more of a fictional romance than anything but it is well written and at the same time sheds some light on America's switch from midwifery care to OB. I really enjoyed this novel and would highly recommend it.
