Sinclair Lewis - Arrowsmith - 1925
![[Image: 11389.jpg]](http://d.gr-assets.com/books/1328006651l/11389.jpg)
Pulitzer Prize winner. Story of a biologist/doctor from his introduction to medicine in his teens to his later retirement years. A passion for learning medicine dominates the story, to the detriment of his friends and wife. Obsession is not a good thing. Setting is from rural Minnesota to Chicago and then NYC. A good read except for all the medicine details (I kept having to look up words). Well written as is Lewis's other work that I have read.
Grade - B
next up - Winston Churchill: The Valiant Years by Jack LeVien and John Lord
