A Wall Street Journal Top-10 Best Seller in 2014 & 2015 and an Amazon “All-Star"
"Medicine Men" is the follow-on to "Heart in the Right Place.” Both books are Wall Street Journal bestsellers and ranked #1 on Amazon in Biography, Memoir, Science, and Medicine.
“Medicine Men" is an extraordinary collection of the most memorable moments from old-school rural physicians who each practiced medicine for more than 50 years in the Southern Appalachian Mountains.
It contains hilarious, heroic, and heartwarming true stories of miracle cures, ghost dogs, and much madcap medical mayhem. Quotations in the book are rendered as they were spoken - in real-life Appalachian dialect.
Jourdan's work is often compared to James Herriot and Bill Bryson. Her books are on hundreds of lists of best books of the year, funniest books, and best book club books.
