I love this book. The writing was so fluid and easy to read. I couldn't put the book down. I loved Martin's first wife who is a very different feminine character. She appears to be a week backseat feminine character but when confronted she stands up for herself and for who she wants to be which makes her seem very powerful. Martin is a hard to love character but with Lewis' writing his motivation becomes easy to understand and I ended up rooting from Martin.

This book offers a perspective on the growth of the medical profession. By reading about Dr. Arrowsmith's life, readers learn about the medical profession in early 20th century America.
One of the difficulities in reading this book, is the antiquated language the represents this period in history. "Gosh, Golly Gee"
All in all it was a good read. I always enjoy reading the Pulitizer Prize winners.
