""When I first met Catherine, straightaway I saw shining through the qualities and attributes which have made her one of the most loved and admired women in the world: warmth, energy, humour, optimism, vivacity, empathy, authenticity."" DAME QUENTIN BRYCE

The Hospital by the River has been in print since it was first published in 2001. This new edition continues the story of the remarkable Australian gynaecologist Dr Catherine Hamlin and her medical work that has transformed the lives of 45,000 Ethiopian women.

Catherine travelled to Ethiopia with her husband, Reg Hamlin, in 1959 on a short contract. Now 92, Catherine is at the head of a world-recognised medical program that specialises in the treatment of labour-induced fistulas. Left untreated, fistulas - rare in Western countries - result in severe incontinence, which forces women into a life of degradation and incapacity.

Catherine and her team have established six fistula hospitals, a village to accommodate patients and a midwifery school, and pioneered techniques that are used the world over. They have won the respect of the Ethiopian government, the Nobel Committee (she has twice been nominated for the Peace Prize) and the hearts of donors around the world, including Oprah Winfrey, whose emotional interview with Catherine introduced millions to the life-threatening reality of giving birth in the Third World.

Set against the harsh beauty of the Ethiopian landscape, this is a compelling account of how the determination and compassion of one woman have inspired others to create genuinely long-lasting change, not just in the lives of individual women but across a nation.

Nice quality casual shirt
Color: Print 02, Size: Large
I love this shirt! It was true to size, color and fit! I washed it in cold water and dried on permanent press. Put on a hanger immediately out of the dryer - no wrinkles! No shrinkage and no fade. Materials is light but is not see thru.

Very flattering
Color: Boho Print 03, Size: X-Large
Great shirts! I have a large bust, and they still look great! They're comfortable and don't cling, and they're machine wash and tumble dry low. This is my third one, and I may buy more.

Great shorts at a great price!
Fit Type: 7" Inseam, Size: X-Large, Color: Navy
Great shorts for a great price. Needed to replace a few pairs of my gym shorts but didn’t want to spend $40+ on a pair. Found these and decided to give them a try. Since getting my first pair I’ve bought 4 more in different colors and have been wearing them daily. They fit great, true to size. Love the zippered pockets so I’m keeping my phone & wallet secure. Extremely lightweight & fast drying. These work great for gym or just casual shorts. 10/10 would recommend.

Nice shorts, fabrics thin but a great fit.
Fit Type: 7" Inseam, Size: Large, Color: Light Green, Fit Type: 7" Inseam, Size: Large, Color: Light Green
These are nice shorts, free flowing thin but not too thin. Feel nice wearing, easy to move around in them. I like the zipper pockets, things don’t fall out of my pockets now when driving or hiking. These are great wearing while walking, hiking or jogging, really durable. Material is thinner than I’m use to but still nice. These have nice elastic waistband plus a tie, I like this. These are great wearing while playing basketball, has nice are flow and lets skin breath.
