Moving from London to rural Maine in the middle of January, British physician Anthony Betts and his wife and children quickly learned practical lessons about snow tires, long johns, and dry gas. Dr. Betts's sense of humor helped him adapt to the culture he encountered in Maine. That same wry amusement makes this memoir so immensely enjoyable.

Disenchanted with the post-war national health care system of Great Britain, Dr. Anthony Betts moved his family to Maine in 1954, where he practiced medicine until his retirement. For many years he and his wife Jean Mary Betts divided their time between Florida and Brunswick, Maine. Dr. Betts died in 2012. Green Wood and Chloroform is his only book.
