Summary

The book is a biography of Rebecca Lee Crumpler, the first African American woman to become a doctor. Against great odds, she earned her medical degree in 1864 and began treating newly freed slaves in Richmond, Virginia. She later set up an office in Boston and wrote a book offering simply stated medical advice for women and children.
