- Synopsis
- "I Will Be A Doctor" is a biography of Elizabeth Blackwell, the first woman physician in The United States. While the story may be classified as juvenile literature, I found it a pleasure to read and very enjoyable. The biography traces Elizabneth Blackwell's life from her childhood in England, to her migration to The United States, and much later back to England. Her life as a pioneer in her chosen vocation is fastinating. Because she lived primarily in the 19th century, there are many social issues which are discussed--slavery, women's rights, extreme poverty, infant death, and the huge issue of hygeine. Enjhoy!
