One glorious ambition : the compassionate crusade of Dorothea Dix : a novel / Jane Kirkpatrick.

Summary:

Born to an unavailable mother and an abusive father, Dorothea Dix longs simply to protect and care for her younger brothers, Charles and Joseph.

Lonely and uncertain, Dorothea discovers that she does not possess the ability to accept the social expectations imposed on her gender and she desires to accomplish something more than finding a suitable mate.
