This is a fun read. Dr. Conger came to VT from Berkeley, California to replace a retiring old country Dr. in a small village. This is his account of learning to deal with the laconic Vermonters, get them to talk about "private" problems and even that every doctor needs to be supervised by a responsible person, a nurse. Very amusing.
