Lady’s Hands, Lion’s Heart: A Midwife’s Saga

Carol Leonard

Often laugh-out-loud funny and irreverent, occasionally disturbing and deeply sorrowful, LADY’S HANDS, LION’S HEART is the saga of Ms. Leonard’s fated journey as a young midwife. Her story intertwines three threads: her dedication to the mothers and babies she was groomed to attend; the growing renaissance, despite formidable opposition, of the profession of midwifery in New Hampshire and then in the United States; and finally, a powerful, tragic love story.
