  Set against the rolling, heather-covered hills of Scotland, Scottish Television's stories of the idealistic Dr Finlay, his wise and unflappable colleague Dr Cameron, the ambitious Dr Neil, and their housekeeper Janet, evoke life in post-war rural Scotland and the world of country medicine. Tracing the origins of Dr Finlay, this book looks at the life and work of A.J. Cronin (creator of the original novels), as well as the old BBC Television series, Dr Finlay's Casebook . It includes behind-the-scenes information from the filming of the Scottish Television series entirely on location, a look at the actors and the characters they play, eye-witness reports and photographs.
