A Midwife's Tale: The Life Of Martha Ballard Based On Her Diary, 1785-1812.

Vintage Books, New York: 1991. Softcover. Good condition. Between 1785 and 1812 a midwife and healer named Martha Ballard kept a diary that recorded her arduous work (in 27 years she attended 816 births) as well as her domestic life in Hallowell, Maine. On the basis of that diary, Laurel Thatcher Ulrich gives us an intimate portrait and densely imagined portrait, not only of the industrious and Martha Ballard but of her society - a portrait that sheds light on its medical practices, religious squabbles and sexual mores. Includes an Index. A truly talented historian unravels the fascinating life of a community that is so foreign, and yet so similar to our own. - Carl N. Degler, The New York Times Book Review
