Dr. Philip A. Hoover's book wonderfully explores country doctoring in the 20th century.
It's been 15 years since Philip A. Hoover's "Echoes of the Health Century: A Physician's Memoir" came out.
Its 222 pages are packed with anecdotes about the situations - often humorous, sometimes severe - that a country doctor would often face.
The York Town Square blog post explores one such issue, a pragmatic Pennsylvania Dutch view of teen pregnancy.
The book is available via the York County Library System.
