Doctor Ben MacFarlane has made a career out of repatriations. He is the one you call when you have an accident on vacation and need medical help getting home. This book outlines a year in his life as he travels around the world and practices medicine on the run. What an interesting profession! This was a well written and engaging book. I can only hope that he writes another.

Doctor Ben MacFarlane gets to travel the world, bringing home ones who have been injured or fallen sick while on holiday. It recounts a year in his life, with the humorous, the bad, and the sad patients he encounters.

This was a delight to read. I very much enjoyed each "adventure" fictionally told in this memoir. There were times when I wanted to laugh out loud at the people he met, and times when I wanted to cry over the tragic tales.

It is well-written, well paced. Each place we visit in the course of the telling is colorful with detail. I would recommend this to anyone looking for a humorous yet truthful read.

I was given a copy from the publisher for reviewing purposes. All opinions expressed are my own.
