Doctor Lamar by Train is a historical fiction novel written by Elizabeth Phipps Train. The story is set in the 19th century and follows the life of Dr. Mary Lamar, a pioneering female physician who defies societal norms and expectations to pursue her passion for medicine. Mary is born into a wealthy family in New York City, but her privileged upbringing does not shield her from the challenges of being a woman in a male-dominated profession. Despite facing discrimination and opposition from her male colleagues, Mary is determined to make a difference in the lives of her patients, particularly women and children.As Mary’s career flourishes, she also navigates personal relationships and struggles with the expectations placed upon her by society. She falls in love with a fellow physician, but their relationship is complicated by his traditional views on gender roles. Mary also grapples with the guilt of leaving her family behind in pursuit of her dreams.Throughout the novel, Train weaves in historical events and figures, such as the Women’s Suffrage Movement and Elizabeth Blackwell, the first female physician in the United States. The novel is a tribute to the courage and tenacity of women who fought for equality and paved the way for future generations.Overall, Doctor Lamar by Train is a compelling and inspiring tale of a trailblazing woman who challenged the status quo and made a lasting impact on the field of medicine.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
