While caring for the physical ailments of the residents of this frontier town, the Logans also minister to their spiritual needs. And Dane has the joy of leading a Ute Indian chief and his family to faith in Christ. Dane’s biggest challenge comes, however, when the stagecoach he’s riding crashes down a ravine. Dane survives, but loses his memory. Who is he? Does he have a family somewhere? And will his trust in God help him find his way back home?THE FRONTIER DOCTOR TRILOGY Countless perils menaced the settlers of the vast wilderness, and one of the most severe was the scarcity of medical care. Risking his own life by day or by night, in all kinds of weather, the frontier doctor was a rare, unsung hero of the West. Strong Heart, Able Hands Dr. Dane Logan and his wife, Tharyn, are happily settled in Central City and considering the right time to start a family. Their medical practice in the little mining town keeps them busy with everything from new babies and appendicitis to gunshot wounds and a rancher gored by a bull. It’s almost more than one doctor can keep up with. Then when the stagecoach he’s riding in crashes down a ravine, Dane awakens with a head injury—and no idea who he is. Will his trust in God help him find his way back home? Story Behind the Book Of all the perils confronting the settlers of the Wild West, serious illness, injuries from mishaps of countless number, and wounds from battles with Indians and outlaws were the most dreaded. The lack of proper medical care resulted in thousands of deaths. It is our desire that the reader will be deeply impressed with the courage of those frontier doctors who helped settle the West. We think you’ll find this final book in this trilogy filled with our faith—gained from so many years of serving the Lord and trusting His written Word.

She'd left her husband and his medical practice behind in Iowa, and with only a few hundred dollars in her pocket and a great deal of pride, she set out to find a new position as a physician. She was offered a job as a doctor to the miners in Bannack, Montana, and thus began her epic adventures as a pioneer doctor, a suffragette, and a crusader for public health reform in the Rocky Mountain West. Pioneer Doctor: The Story of a Woman's Work is the true story of Dr. Mary (Mollie) Babcock Atwater, a medicine woman who found freedom and opportunity in the wide-open spaces of America's frontier west. This remarkable tale has been creatively retold here by her granddaughter, award-winning author Mari Grana.

Beautifully written and thoroughly researched, this is not just the biography of a fascinating woman. It is also the story of an era when daring women ventured forth and changed history for the rest of us.

Book Synopsis Frontier Doctors of Indian Territory Oklahoma by : Will Welton
Download or read book Frontier Doctors of Indian Territory Oklahoma written by Will Welton and published by Publishamerica Incorporated. This book was released on 2008-12-01 with total page 298 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: On the western frontier, most of the doctors had very little medical training. Some of the men that did the doctoring were dentists, barbers and veterinarians. They did their best with what knowledge they possessed. In todayas world, the emergency medical technicians, most commonly called EMTs, have more training than the doctors of the 1800s or even over into the early 1900s. The doctors of the late 1800s knew how to do very simple surgery, dig for bullets, sew up cuts and to maybe set broken bones, and treat very little of the diseases that confronted them. Their medical knowledge of medicine to give to people was very limited, to say the least, but the doctors were valued in any community. The stories told in this novel were told to me by Doctor Mullins. In 1961, Doc was ninety years old and had quit practicing medicine at the time. In his early years, he had treated people in the late 1800s and for his pay had received barter goods more times than money. The doctors of old at times didnat make enough money to buy medicine to replace what they used and had to resort to trading what they received as payment for money or other means.
