""Domina" is an impressively researched and emotionally involving
saga of one of the first woman doctors and a fascinating look back
into the dark ages of medicine-a century ago. The strong feminine
point of view is compelling and passionate . A book that inspires."
-Elizabeth Forsythe Hailey, author of "A Woman of Independent
Means" Set in London, New York, and San Francisco from the late
nineteenth century through the first decades of the twentieth,
"Domina" is the inspiring saga of one woman's personal and
professional triumph against the prejudices of her time. Beautiful
and courageous, Samantha Hargrave dares to dream that she will
become one of the first female doctors-and surgeons-in America.
Born in the slums of London and possessing a special gift for
healing, Samantha struggles to enter the all-male medical
profession. When her ambition meets with hostile rejection in
England, she sails to America, where she meets an eccentric doctor
who takes her on as an apprentice. But at the high-profile Astor
Ball in New York, Samantha is introduced to the second of the three
men who will change her life forever-and love just might interfere
with her ambition. Acclaimed novelist Barbara Wood reveals her
remarkable talent by capturing Samantha's indomitable spirit,
making "Domina" a literary triumph.
