Description

“This autobiography is always good, often delightful reading. It is not merely one man's story but a social history of the first order...the life story and unadorned thoughts of a talented, honorable, pig-headed, far-thinking, outspoken good doctor, who has, like all doctors, many a tale to tell.”– New York Herald Tribune Weekly Book Review
