About this book
Dr. William MacLure, a country doctor in the Scottish glen of Drumtochty, is the central figure of these sketches by Ian Maclaren. Five parts carry titles such as A General Practitioner, A Fight with Death and The Mourning of the Glen, and the dialogue is written in broad Scots.
In his preface Maclaren says any of four country doctors he had known might have sat for his hero. This edition carries illustrations by Mr. Gordon.
