Disenchanted with the post-war national health care system of Great Britain, Dr. Anthony Betts moved his family to Maine in 1954, where he practiced medicine until his retirement. For many years he and his wife Jean Mary Betts divided their time between Florida and Brunswick, Maine. Dr. Betts died in 2012. Green Wood and Chloroform is his only book.
[Betts'] recounting is full of details about rural Maine in the
1950s, a time that still held many old practices and ways that make
for a good read for anyone interested in the living history of the
state.
