Boston Globe; a fantastic review from Alex Beam’s column in Tuesday,
September 9th issue
". . . He is a smart guy, walking around, paying attention. I'd name
his genre nostalgic realism; Mitchell certainly knows where this city and
its many peculiar institutions come from, and he understands modernity as
well . . . this book will take its place next to Walter Muir Whitehill's
“Boston,” with engravings by Rudolph Ruzicka, as one of the treasured
Hub tomes of our time."

Library Journal; great review in September 9th issue
“Harman comes across as a wonderful, empathic friend and listener,
and the stories she tells here, intertwined with her own life story, are
personal and moving. A vivid and detailed picture of the health-care system
in the United States today, from the perspective of one caring, intelligent,
and hard-working professional. Highly recommended for public and medical
libraries.”
