This historical fiction novel, Doctor Margaret's Sea Chest, was recently published by a small-press in the UK. This is Book I of a Trilogy that tells the story of an American woman, Margaret, born to Presbyterian parents in New Jersey. She, overcoming tremendous obstacles, is among the first to become a doctor in the 1850s. Margaret travels with her Canadian husband, an officer in the British Cavalry, to Crimea where he takes part in the Charge of the Light Brigade. Later, Margaret joins her parents who are missionaries at one of the first American Missions and asylum/school in India. There she gets involved in the 1857 Indian Mutiny/Rebellion by serving as a physician for the Rani of Jhansi, the Indian “warrior queen,” who fights the British forces.
