The Physician by Noah Gordon

4.0

The life journey of Rob Cole as first Orphan boy to journeyman barber surgeon to his quest to become a physician by studying in Persia (forbidden to Christians). Along the way he learns not only the art of healing, but what it means to be a Christian, Jew, and Muslim and to do what it takes to thrive as all three. HIs story is about passion and a calling to heal. I enjoyed this long journey and trip back to the early middle ages.
