Nicola Barber's narration made thisbook, interesting and compelling on it's own, come alive. Toward the end, I realized that this is a book I will listen to several times.

I absolutely loved the book. It was a real learning experience for me. I knew about midwifes, but the history behind it was amazing. The details about her life and living in the sisters house, the understanding of the sisters through time, understanding and appreciation for each of their personalities was so enjoyable as well as a learning experience.

Amazing book, fascinating, endearing and touching. Nicola Barber nails it! She made this book come alive. Jennifer Worth would definitely approve! Thanks for this excellent audiobook.

The narrator is amazing-one of the best listens I’ve had. The content was fun, interesting and provided a lot of insight into a bygone era. Loved it!

Wonderful characters! Excellent descriptions! Fabulous narrator! Truly enjoyable all around!

This was well narrated and well written. The historical aspect was as interesting as the story of her life itself.

Great read!

This was a great story. I love learning the historical pieces of modern medicine and the dawn of women’s health. The characters are just fantastic. My only complaint is the narrators’ whispery voice. She may need to pipe in a bit better. I hate having to turn up my volume and rewinding because she thinks she’s telling an 11 hour secret.

Enjoyed the story and the storyteller!

Fascinating historical perspective on London's everyday "heroes".
