Mitchell Lake: an Illustrated History reminds us of the lake's origins as a natural body of water that attracted a large number of Native American tribes, primarily hunters and gatherers pursuing the abundant game and plant life in its environs for perhaps thousands of years. It traces the history of the Mitchell Lake area, chronicles the growth of San Antonio, details the environmental evolution of its waste management, and highlights the successful efforts of activist volunteers. Revised for 2012.

This book recounts the journey of English midwives over six centuries and their battle for survival as a discrete profession, caring safely for childbearing women. With a particular focus on sixteenth and twentieth century midwifery practice, it includes new research which provides evidence of the identity, social status, lives, families and practice of contemporary midwives, and argues that the excellent care given by ecclesiastically licensed midwives in Tudor England was not bettered until the twentieth century. Relying on a wide variety of archived and personally collected material, this history illuminates the lives, words, professional experiences and outcomes of midwives. It explores the place of women in society, the development of midwifery education and regulation, the seventeenth century arrival of the accoucheurs and the continuing drive by obstetricians to medicalise birth. A fascinating and compelling read, it highlights the politics and challenges that have shaped midwifery practice today and encourages readers to be confident in midwifery-led care and giving women choices in childbirth. It is an important read for all those interested in childbirth.
