NO JOB FOR A LADY

Rating:
Summary: Very amusing and interesting
Review: Any animal lover will like this book. But this book is not just for animal enthusiats. The obstacles the author overcomes to become the first lady veterinarian in America is astonishing. She became highly successful and had people seeking her out because of her advanced study of surgery on horses who previously would have had to have been put down. This book is well-written and very funny. Anyone who likes James Herriott will definetly enjoy this book.

Rating:
Summary: An eminently entertaining book.
Review: I lost this book several years ago in a house fire. Nonetheless, I often think about the delightful escapades and endearing anecdotes. Phyllis Lose's intelligence, heart, courage, and sense of humor come through loud and clear. Her story of going to Veterinary School at a time when women vets were few and far between is an inspiration. Having this book out of print is a shame. This is a must read for any young person who loves animals (or anyone else needing to break down barriers)
