Katherine's Remarkable Road Trip is a fun biographical historical fiction written by Gail Ward Olmsted. We meet Miss Katharine Wormley - Kate - as she travels by motor vehicle in the fall of 1907. Travel by car, especially for a woman at 80, was rare at that time, but Kate is a rare individual.
Along her route, she meets many people who need what she has to offer from advice to encouragement to her medical knowledge. She also meets ups with old friends and family. Through it all, she reflects back on her amazing life. Katharine Prescott Wormeley is a real woman born in England and moving to New England when she was just 18. She volunteered as a nurse on a medical ship during the Civil War, founded a school, ran a hospital, authored a book, and translated French novels. She, like her trip, and this book, was remarkable! A definite joy to read.
