Amelia expects great adventure in the new land of Texas, but her dreams are shattered when her employer abandons her in Galveston.

The sudden proposal of the ship's handsome physician seems too good to be true; is Doctor Stein really the man she imagines? Settling with him in the German migrant camp on the Texas coast only feeds her sense of failure.

Amelia's secret life is masked by the couple's growing prosperity and her successful operation of Stein's mercantile store. But after a buying trip to New Orleans opens a whole new chapter of personal fulfillment for her, she begins her path towards becoming an independent woman.

A story of personal growth, hardship and courage, THE DOCTOR'S WIFE is the first book in Myra Hargrave McIlvain's series of historical novels, set in mid-19th century Texas.

This is the large print edition of The Doctor's Wife, with a larger font / typeface for easier reading.
