As far as I understand, midwife was usually the first person to touch the baby and her job was to make sure the birth goes smoothly for both the mom and the baby. Handling babies is an essential part of midwife's profession.
So far I don't think you have presented any direct evidence that the book has something to do with midwifery or that the book has something to do with Maltese. Is this correct?
