The Pathological Casebook of Dr. Frances McGill - New Edition

by Myrna L. Petersen

Designation of Dr. Frances Gertrude McGill as a National Historic Person

The Government of Canada's recognition of Dr. Frances McGill's legacy as a national historic person is of significance for one who modelled the way for women to rise to the top in non-traditional roles. When Dr. Frances McGill put down her roots in Regina, Saskatchewan, no one suspected that from this out-of- the-way, great plains region would emerge Canada's first female pathologist and a pioneer in forensic medicine. Often referred to as "the first woman Mountie," in 1946, she was named the first "Honorary Surgeon to the RCMP," a rare distinction as the only other woman to receive that title is her late Majesty Queen Elizabeth II.

This new edition is expanded from the 2005 book and includes three new cases plus a 'Tribute to a Great Aunt'. This is the story of Dr. Frances McGill's career, which spanned over five decades and includes several of her most fascinating pathological cases.

Myrna L. Petersen is a Saskatchewan-born, Regina-based writer who spent hundreds of hours researching and writing to uncover the gold nuggets of this hidden Canadian adventure. Myrna's tenacity and determination to bring Dr. Frances McGill's work to light produced the first biography on this Gem of a Treasure.
