Pioneer Doctor: The Story Of A Woman's Work

Interesting, easy to read account of a determined woman who became a doctor, first working in a mining camp where men were leery and eventually became active in the advancement of women in society, i.e., medicine, suffrage, etc. Well-researched and written by her granddaughter.

This is the true story of Mary (Molly) Babcock Atwater. She went to medical school and became a doctor at a time when women doctors were unheard of. From her Wisconsin home she travelled to Utah and from there to Montana where she was hired as a mining camp Doctor.
