A Midwife's Tale: The Life of Martha Ballard, Based on Her Diary, 1785-1812
Average rating:
Historically interesting.
Perusing a personal diary (portions of the diary are included in the book) which contain sentence fragments and short descriptions of the day's activity, Laurel Ulrich's book, "A Midwife's Tale: The Diary of Martha Ballard," is a fascinating reconstruction in the life of Martha Ballard, a midwife who, during the Revolutionary War, is characterized as a feminist in her own right. By choice, many women left their homes to join their husbands to help fight the war; others were driven away by Brittish soldiers; but Martha Ballard, unaffected by the War and American Politics, resided at home with her husband, family, and friends. Incredibly, Ulrich writes in narrative style that Martha Ballard had performed in 27 years more than 800 deliveries in and around Hallowell, Maine, produced and distributed drugs, prepared burials and dissections, at a time when medicine was in its infancy. This is a true story of a woman who had been independent, strong, and productive throughout her life. In the environment surrounding Martha's world, "A Midwife's Tale" also portrays a 'women's community' that characterizes an almost perfect social and economic ideal of their time. The winner of numerous prizes, historians, history enthusiasts, and feminists will find this 352 page book (not including endnotes and index) a wonderful and interesting read.

cool

what's he planning to do with those scissors?

I like this Martha Moody Ballard.

But the scissor-guy's Martha looks daft. She's saying "come on, baby, stab me in the back with those bushcutters".
