### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars







  
  
    Very good read, with important HIstory
  

*by N***R on Reviewed in the United States on June 27, 2018*

This is a great book about the history of Medicine during the Jim Crow era.  It shows the capacity of black women to go one step beyond their own duties, and the few black doctors to  work until they dropped.  I was a social worker and had a number of clients who attended the Black Hospital where I live, and always found the hospital to be clean and the staff friendly, so I read this with part shame and part amazement of the power of spirit during the Civil Rights movement and before.  I had never read much of what David Barton Smith had collected and am a fairly avid reader of the civil rights movement.  This was a new perspective and as a retired clinical (white) medical social worker, I believe it to be an important one.
