The Midwife: A Memoir of Birth, Joy, and Hard Times by Jennifer Worth
This is a great book if you want to know what a midwife went through...back then, anyways. Obviously, a lot has changed today, and some of the things may not readily apply but that's the whole point.
This is sort of like a history book and takes you back to see how life was back then and how the midwife was treated. In the beginning, the job of the midwife was not looked upon as being very important; it was not until later, after many years of service, that they came to be appreciated a whole lot more.
