fine, honest, and moving a study of a young doctor as The Citadel
without possessing great literary taste and skill." --The Atlantic
MonthlyA groundbreaking novel of its time and a National Book Award
winner.The Citadel follows the life of Andrew Manson, a young and
idealistic Scottish doctor, as he navigates the challenges of
practicing medicine across interwar Wales and England. Based on

confronts traditional medical ethics, and has been noted as one of
the inspirations for the formation of the National Health

radio, and television productions around the world, including the
Oscar-nominated 1938 film starring Ralph Donat, Rosalind Russell,
Ralph Richardson, and Rex Harrison.
