An Irish Country Doctor (Reprint) (Paperback) by Patrick Taylor

This book is a captivating tale of an inexperienced young doctor, Barry Laverty, who jumps at the chance to secure a position as an assistant in a small rural practice in Northern Ireland.

Through his pugnacious mentor, Dr.

Fingal Flahertie O'Reilly, Barry soon gets to know all of the village's colorful and endearing residents and a host of other eccentric characters who make every day an education for the young doctor.

With pluck and compassion, and only the slightest touch of blarney, Barry will find out more about life--and love--than he ever imagined back in medical school.

This charming and engrossing tale will captivate readers from the very first page and leave them yearning to visit the Irish countryside of days gone by.
