About This Book
Dr. Friberg was a medical missionary in Tanzania from 1942-1951. The child of medical missionaries, he grew up in central China. The tales spun in this memoir are tales of faith, tales of hardship, and tales of adventure -- the story of his (and his family's) life of service.

Disappointing book on an interesting topic
White House Doctor by Dr. Burton Smith is a poorly written, sophomoric account of the author's time as the physician to President Reagan.

No one buys this book to learn about his time in med school. I ...

Great Weekend Read
Coming from both a physician and a pilot, I thought the book portrayed both endeavors very well. Moreover, as someone who just enjoys reading, I thought it was unbeatable. The book was full of adventure and great descriptions of exciting (and true) events. The writing style fit the topic and was pleasantly easy to read. Like the last reviewer, I have shared the book with several friends, all ...

Dickens at his best.
Without doubt Dickens best short story; first heard it being performed by the actor Simon Callow (this man brings Dickens alive like no other!).

A little known book in the vast collection of his writings, but probably his best. ...

An Awesome Read

Difficult to Put Down
I became aware of Dr. McCauley-Bell when I logged on to a seminar that was hosted by Society of Women Engineers. The course title was Decision Making Under Uncertainty and it discussed a five step plan for personal success: Goal setting, Planning, Good association and believing in yourself. At first it seemed a typical seminar, but there was something about the presenter that was different. Dr. ...
