Midwife

Set around Berkeley, California, Midwife: An Adventure is filled with unique characters and local color balanced by a skilled midwife's ability to educate readers through the ancient art of storytelling. Voices of women and children from the Internet are unique additions to this volume.

Narrated by a midwife with a Go Get 'Em attitude and written with humor, tolerance, and everlasting wonderment, Midwife: An Adventure is Peggy's fourth book on the subject but her third in the series Memoirs of an Urban Midwife. Along with Baby Catcher: Chronicles of a Modern Midwife, Scribner 2002), Peggy's first book, these volumes have provided the impetus for many women to become midwives and for even more to consider the option of choosing a midwife for their care, whether they planned a home or a hospital birth.
