More Than a Midwife
Mary is clearly a midwife who loves women and birth and practices with sensitivity, respect, and positive regard. More Than a Midwife is a slim paperback. It is nice size to hold easily and the stories are short and easy to read in small chunks of free time. However, this was a negligible issue in the context of this thoroughly enjoyable small book. Mary Sommers has written a true gem of a book. I was provided with a complimentary copy of the book for review purposes.
