DR MUTTER’S MARVELS reviewed in RAIN TAXI

Posted on

The paperback edition of DR MUTTER’S MARVELS received a rave review in RAIN TAXI. “Mütter’s is a great American success story: impoverished orphan grows up to revolutionize his field and win the adoration of his colleagues, all through hard work, ingenuity, and a plucky good nature. Our hero even has a foil: the almost comically retrograde Dr. Charles Meigs, who clashes with Mütter in a series of dramatic showdowns,” the review reads.” [G]iven the engaging nature of this work, readers will clamor for Aptowicz to write a companion volume discussing the collection in a similar context.” To read the full review, click here.
