"Dr. Bill Bauer's story really begins in 1941, when he and his wife moved to Ladysmith, Wisconsin. There, he treated - and grew to love and be loved by - the colorful cast of characters found in this book. Over five decades, the quiet doctor became a legend: sage and poet, newspaper and magazine writer, civic leader and outstanding athlete, forester and ichthyologist, and author of BRETHREN OF THE BRULE, Wisconsin's best book on the science and romance of trout. Most importantly, Dr. Bill aproached medicine as a calling, not a career, and his compassion is his greatest legacy - to Ladysmith and to the physicians who follow him.
