Description:
The astonishing true story of Dr James Barry, a pioneering doctor for nearly 50 years who achieved the highest medical rank in the British Army. But what secret is the swashbuckling surgeon concealing? Edinburgh graduate, shocking flirt, skilled duellist and equestrian, social and medical reformer who transformed the treatment of sexual diseases, leprosy and mental illness, Barry was the first European to carry out a Caesarean where both mother and child survived. Barry and faithful manservant Black John bring this extraordinary tale to vivid life. Compelling new writing by Hilary Spiers about a shamefully forgotten nonpareil.
