Midwifes Tale
|
|
|
~ A midwife’s tale ~
“Yet it is in the very dailiness, the exhaustive, repetitious dailiness, that the real power of Martha Ballard’s book lies.”
In A Midwife’s Tale, Laurel Ulrich transforms the humble, matter-of-fact, often tedious account book of an eighteenth century midwife into a rich, intimate portrait of New England frontier life during the days of the early republic. ... A Midwife’s Tale only reminds the reader how much information about the past is both waiting to be discovered and has been lost forever.
