She can't stop the fighting, but she can bandage the wounds... Virginia Field Hospital, 1862. Abbey Kaplan will do whatever it takes to become a doctor. As a surgical assistant, her first major test is tolerating her chauvinistic male associates. But when her inaugural posting lands her smack in the middle of a Civil War field hospital, proving herself isn't about pride-it's a matter of life or death. As the battle-mangled bodies keep coming, Abbey's calling means ignoring the risks to her own safety and sanity. But when relentless gore, lack of sleep, and overwhelming pressure push her toward her breaking point, establishing herself in a man's world might just kill her. Will Abbey earn her rightful place in history or will she falter under the crushing pressure of the bloody war? A Female Doctor in the Civil War is the third book in the American Journeys historical fiction series.
