A Medal for Dr. Mary - 4821

A Medal for Dr. Mary chronicles a lifetime fraught with barriers and pitfalls as she refused to accept the limitations of a chauvinistic society. Her extraordinary graduation from medical school, her fearless dress reform battle, and her uncompromising campaign to advance women's rights all pale in light of her unprececented acceptance as a Union Army surgeon. Her daring espionage activities saved Sherman forces from disastrous ambush, but later caused her capture and detention in the dreaded Castle Thunder Prison. A must read for all ages.This is a fictional novel based on the true life story of Dr. Mary Edwards.
