In a world where women are relegated to needlepoint and parlor chairs, Aleen sets her sights on barns and veterinary surgery. Her journey to become the impossible is inspiring, heartwarming, and ultimately triumphant. --Lisa Wingate, #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Book of Lost Friends I loved The Invincible Miss Cust. What a remarkable woman--and what an enthralling story! --Janet Skeslien Charles, New York Times bestselling author of The Paris Library Must-read historical fiction for fans of Marie Benedict and Tracey Enerson Wood, based on the real life of Britain\'s first woman veterinary surgeon. Aleen Cust has big dreams. And no one--not her family, society, or the law--will stop her. Born in Ireland in 1868 to an aristocratic English family, Aleen knows she is destined to work with animals, even if her family is appalled by the idea of a woman pursuing a veterinary career. Going against their wishes but with the encouragement of the guardian assigned to her upon her father\'s death, Aleen attends the New Veterinary College in Edinburgh, enrolling as A. I. Custance to spare her family the humiliation they fear. At last, she is on her way to becoming a veterinary surgeon! Little does she know her biggest obstacles lie ahead. The Invincible Miss Cust is based on the real life of Aleen Isabel Cust, who defied her family and society to become Britain and Ireland\'s first woman veterinary surgeon. Through Penny Haw\'s meticulous research, riveting storytelling, and elegant prose, Aleen\'s story of ambition, determination, family, friendship, and passion comes to life. It is a story that, even today, women will recognize, of battling patriarchy and an unequal society to realize one\'s dreams and pave the way for other women in the face of seemingly insurmountable odds.
