These are stories of medicine as it used to be. It was a time before production-line office visits, before computerized CAT scans—for that matter, it was even before X-rays had been invented. It was an era when physicians routinely made house calls; and the “family doc” not only knew your medical history, but that of your parents and your grandparents as well. He knew it because he had personally treated all three generations.
Around the Red Lamp is a priceless insight into those times.
