Dr James Barry was the very first European doctor to perform a caesarean section in which both mother and baby survived, he was a pioneer in preventative medicine, befriended a revolutionary and had a spat with the lady with the lamp herself, Florence Nightingale. Despite such accolades and an exciting life, a secret was discovered upon Barry's death that created a scandal and caused the British military to seal Dr Barry's records for a hundred years.
