Deeply inspiring and gracefully wrought, Claire Holman Rothman’s testament to the times and trials of one of the medical profession’s pioneering women is made all the more compelling for its unabashed affection towards its heroine. Agnes White is the brilliant, awkward champion whose story of defiance and fortitude is driven only by her need to be what she is – her father’s daughter.
