Alchemy's Daughter - Paperback

by Mary Ann Osborne (Author), Rachael McHan (Illustrator)

"Brimming with details of life in Italy during the plague of 1348, this well-researched story incorporates historical information about medieval alchemy, midwifery, and the conflict between science and superstition, providing a rich context and arresting contrast for Santina's thoroughly modern attitudes."-Kirkus Reviews
