The Citadel by A J Cronin
When newly-qualified doctor Andrew Manson takes up his first post with a Welsh mining community he is full of idealism and enthusiasm. However, he finds that the reality of practising medicine in primitive conditions very different from the theory, and he makes enemies as well as friends.
A. J. Cronin was born in Scotland in 1896. In 1914 he entered the Faculty of Medicine at Glasgow University, but his studies were interrupted by war service as a surgeon sub-lieutenant in the Navy. He graduated in 1919, and was later appointed Medical Inspector of Mines. He practised medicine in London until ill-health made him return to literature, and he wrote many hugely successful novels, including the famous Dr Finlay series. He was married with three sons, and died in 1981.
