Barry Laverty, M.B., can scarcely find the village of Ballybucklebo on the map when he first places out to get gainful work there, but already he is aware of that there surely is nowhere he would somewhat live than in the emerald hills and dales of Northern Ireland. The proud owner of an spanking-new medical level and little else in the form of worldly property, Barry jumps at the opportunity to secure a position as an assistant in a small rural practice.At least until he satisfies Dr. Fingal Flahertie O'Reilly.The old medical doctor, whose motto is never to allow patients obtain 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 before met, or the best educator he could ever before expect. Through O'Reilly Barry soon gets to know every one of the village's colorful and endearing residents, including:A malingering Major and his evenly hypochondriacal better half;An unwed servant girl, who won't divulge the daddy of her upcoming baby;A somewhat daft old few unable to marry for lack of a roof;And a bunch of other eccentric individuals who make every day an education for the inexperienced young doctor.Ballybucklebo is good way from Belfast, and Barry is quick to learn that he still has a lot to learn about the quirks and practices of country life. But with pluck and compassion and only the slightest touch of blarney, he'll discover more about life--and love--than he ever truly imagined back in medical institution.An Irish Country Doctor is a lovely and engrossing story that will captivate readers from the 1st page--and leave them yearning to visit the Irish countryside of the past.
