""Stories of a Country Doctor"" is a collection of short stories written by Willis Percival King and originally published in 1908. The book follows the life of a country doctor, Dr. Lavendar, as he navigates the challenges and joys of practicing medicine in a rural community. Through a series of heartwarming and often humorous anecdotes, King paints a vivid picture of life in a small town at the turn of the century. From delivering babies to treating injuries and illnesses, Dr. Lavendar is a beloved figure in his community, and his patients come to rely on him not only for medical care but also for his wisdom and compassion. Along the way, he encounters a colorful cast of characters, including a mischievous young boy, a stubborn old farmer, and a headstrong young woman, each with their own unique story to tell. With its charming portrayal of small-town life and its celebration of the human spirit, ""Stories of a Country Doctor"" is a timeless classic that continues to captivate readers today.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
