The book recognizes the achievements by a nineteenth-century
community of women religious, the Grey Nuns of Lewiston, Maine. The
founding of their hospital was significant in its time as the first
hospital in that factory city; and is significant today if one
desires a more accurate and inclusive history of women and
healthcare in America. The fact that this community lived in a
hostile, Protestant-dominated, industrial environment while
submerged in a French-Canadian Catholic world of ethnicity,
tradition and paternalism makes their accomplishments more
compelling.
