The midwife's choice

Parr, Delia. (Author).

Summary: "Martha Cade is a midwife in the town of Trinity in 1830s Pennsylvania. In a time when the traditional ways of medicine are constantly being questioned by new doctors fresh from medical school, Martha tries to balance her life's calling with the demands of her family. Recently reunited with her estranged seventeen-year-old daughter, Martha finds herself torn between guiding her child and allowing her to be an adult. And the town of Trinity itself is fraught with secrets: as a midwife, Martha knows which families are troubled, which wives are unhappy, and which husbands have crossed the line from discipline to abuse...As Martha struggles with the conflicts of being a mother, a midwife, and a woman, she learns the greatest lessons of all -- that hope can shine even in the darkest hours, and that faith has a way of making the impossible possible."--
