by Walt MD Larimore (Author), Jerry Jenkins (Foreword by)

You'll laugh, you'll cry, and you'll wish Dr. Larimore was your doctor.
This book is more than fun homespun stories of small-town medicine. You may see yourself in its mirror, yet trust me, you'll be the better for it in the end.--from the foreword by Jerry B. Jenkins, #1 New York Times bestselling novelist and biographer
