Doctor Lee is a historical novel written by Marshall Broomhall in 1908. The book is set in China during the late 19th century and early 20th century and follows the life of Dr. Lee, a Chinese doctor who is trained in Western medicine. Dr. Lee is a dedicated physician who is committed to helping his patients, regardless of their social status or background. He faces many challenges in his work, including the resistance of traditional Chinese medicine practitioners and the prejudices of Western doctors who do not believe in the capabilities of Chinese medicine. The novel also explores the political and social issues of the time, including the Boxer Rebellion, the opium trade, and the clash between Western and Eastern cultures. Dr. Lee becomes involved in these issues as he works to improve the healthcare system in China and promote the use of Western medicine. Throughout the book, Dr. Lee’s character is developed as a compassionate and wise individual who is respected by both Chinese and Westerners. His dedication to his patients and his commitment to improving healthcare in China make him a hero in the eyes of those around him. Overall, Doctor Lee is a fascinating and engaging novel that provides insight into the history and culture of China during a time of great change. It is a must-read for anyone interested in the history of medicine, the clash of cultures, or the history of China.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
