"The book inspired me to have a baby," says a reader, "on my own." Debra Ann Susie left her home in Miami, Florida, to attended Florida State University. In the time of receiving her PHD, she wrote a dissertation. Her subject was brilliant; Midwifery. The book involves the broad-range of interviews from [mainly] southern, black midwifes in the Georgia/Florida rural areas.
