Madama Fessel, as she was known, was a professionally trained midwife from Paris who immigrated to New Orleans, Mexico, and finally ended up in Lima in about 1820 where she founded and headed up La Maternidad, a school of midwifery. Printed in Lima in 1830, this book is one of the oldest items in the collection from Latin America that was written by a woman.
