| Summary |
A surprising number of the literary greats of all countries have at one time or another written about the medical scene. Here for the first time, the intriguing, delightful, dramatic, all-absorbing stories by such masters of narrative as A.J. Cronin, Somerset Maugham, Ernest Hemingway, Erskine Caldwell, Peral Buck, and more than two dozen others have been combined into a volume loaded with great stories about doctors. In this unique collection you will find 35 pieces that reflect the moods, sentiments, and behavior of doctors and nurses living their personal as well as their professional lives. Here are stories factual and imaginary, whimsical and robust, serious and humorous, touching and gay - but with one common element: the uniform excellence of their literary craftsmanship. A TREASURY OF DOCTOR STORIES is a book of permanent enjoyment for your own library. It is also an ideal gift for your doctor or nurse, for the traveler, the sick-abed, and the stay-at-home, and for anyone else who loves good reading. |
