By Mary E. Wilkins Freeman and Freeman

Book Overview

""Doc. Gordon"" is a novel by Mary E. Wilkins Freeman, first published in 1906. The story follows the life of a young, female doctor named Jane Brown who moves to a small New England town to start her medical practice. Despite facing prejudice and skepticism from the townspeople, Jane works hard to prove herself as a capable physician and gains the respect of many of her patients. Along the way, she also navigates romantic relationships with two very different men: the wealthy and charming Dr. Richard Gordon, and the humble and hardworking farmer, Seth Upham. As Jane tries to balance her personal and professional life, she must also confront the challenges of being a woman in a male-dominated field. ""Doc. Gordon"" is a compelling tale of perseverance, love, and the struggle for equality in early 20th century America.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
