An Irish Country Doctor (This is the first book in the series)
BY PATRICK TAYLOR
The beloved New York Times bestseller,
now in paperback
Barry Laverty, MD, can barely find the village of Ballybucklebo
on a map when he first sets out to seek gainful employment
there, but he already knows that there is nowhere he would
rather live than in the emerald hills and glens of Northern Ireland.
The proud owner of a spanking-new medical degree, Barry jumps
at the chance to secure a position as an assistant in a small rural
practice.
At least until he meets Dr. Fingal Flahertie O’Reilly.
The older physician, whose motto is to never let the patients get
the upper hand, has his own way of doing things. At first, Barry
can’t decide if the pugnacious O’Reilly is the biggest charlatan he
has ever met, or the best teacher he could ever hope for.
Ballybucklebo is long way from Belfast, and Barry soon discovers
that he still has a lot to learn about country life. But if he sticks
with it, he just might end up finding out more about life—and
love—than he ever imagined back in medical school.
Hope you love Patrick Taylors books as much as my mum and I do.
bye for now

This is a wonderful book - and a wonderful book series. Sort of an Irish human version of "All Creatures Great and Small" - the description of life in simpler, gentler, but not idyllic times.
