Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the conditions surrounding maternity and childcare in rural Mississippi during the early 20th century. It is based on interviews with 675 local mothers and provides valuable insights into a period where public health programs and medical care were scarce and home remedies were often the norm. The author explores the educational gaps which contributed to poor healthcare choices and the limited access to prenatal care, often resulting in higher maternal mortality rates. Beyond issues of maternal care, this book also examines infant care, child development, and the influence of farming conditions on the well-being of families, painting a vivid picture of rural life in the early 1900s. The book's analysis is crucial for understanding the historical context of healthcare in the United States and the ongoing struggle to provide equitable access to quality medical services for all.
