The Doctor's Wife Chapter 1

In which we are introduced to the earnest young surgeon George Gilbert, a country-bred gentleman content with his quiet life in the modest town of Graybridge, and follow his journey to London where he reunites with an old schoolfellow engaged in literary pursuits. The narrative gently paints a picture of George’s simple virtues and steady character as he navigates the unfamiliar sounds and sights of the metropolis with a trusting and unassuming spirit.
