    About this ebook

    A captivating story of Edwin Ingleby, from being a mediocre boy during his time at St. Luke's boarding school to qualifying as a medical doctor in North Bromwich in his twenties. The book focuses on his youth and medical studies, which conclude around the beginning of the Boer war. It provides insights into the whole range of people with whom Ingleby engages in Halesby and North Bromwich, from the rich to the poor, the self-centered to the modest and grateful. Francis Brett Young has, as usual, excelled in forming the scene, specifically the countryside, which he describes in an almost poetic magnificence.

    The Young Physician is beautiful work fused with the author's remarkable acuity into medical education. Francis Brett Young trained at the University of Birmingham to become a qualified physician. He was an English novelist, poet, playwright, composer, doctor, and soldier.
