A Study of Abnormality
Early in the book, Miss Jane, there is a comment by her doctor, "Who can say what life will make of a body?".
Based on a true story, Jane Chisolm was fortunate that her physical abnormalities were not visible to others and only known to a few. To someone medically interested in her abnormal anatomy might find this book interesting. Otherwise, it is simply a story of a family existing!
