A biography of the two doctor brothers whose Minnesota clinic became world-famous.
From School Library Journal
Grade 3-5-- Two biographies that offer a look at medical practices in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. The accounts of surgery performed on kitchen tables, Elizabeth Kenny's adventures in the Australian outback, and the story of how 16-year-old Will Mayo was left alone by his coroner father to finish an autopsy at night in an abandoned hotel are sure to interest young readers. The books are well written and, while a bit of dialogue may have been invented, on the whole, they seem to be authoritative and objective. Crofford mentions that Kenny sometimes exaggerated her qualifications and even some of her medical successes in an attempt to be taken more seriously, but clearly she does not see this weakness as detracting from Kenny's dedication and achievements. Both books cite personal interviews as some of the sources of information. The bibliography in Healing Warrior can be used to teach students the difference between primary and secondary sources, as the two types are clearly separated and labeled. The black-and-white illustrations enhance the text; there are no photographs. Good introductions to three admirable medical pioneers that will attract recreational readers and be useful for reports. --Jean H. Zimmerman, Willett School, South River, NJ
