While reading is, of course, encouraged to enhance the discussion, if you don't have an opportunity to complete the reading, you are still most welcome to listen in. 


This session will feature: A Midwife's Tale by Laurel Thatcher Ulrich

Follow the story of Martha Ballard, a midwife and healer in late 18th-/early 19th century Maine. Using the words of Mrs. Ballard's diary, Ulrich weaves a picture of not only the daily life of an extraordinarily industrious woman, but of her community as well.
