Author Event: Jimmy Ashcraft

Member-owner and author Jimmie Ashcraft of Billings will be at This House of Books on Friday, February 23, starting at 5:30 to read from, lead a discussion about, and sign his book, Reflections of a Country Doctor.

About the Book

"This book contains my reflections on my 26 years as an 'old time' generalist family physician in rural America," writes Dr. Ashcraft. "It is merely a collection of stories that depict some of my many experiences over the years. The stories mirror those of many of my generalist colleagues who have experienced "the trenches" of rural primary care. My stories span the breadth and depth of the discipline of rural family medicine. Stories range from assisting mothers giving birth to caring for and comforting those at the end of life, from performing surgery to becoming involved in one's community, and from making house calls to providing emergency room care. Some are silly, some are sad, some are funny, and some may make you mad."
