Beyond the NextVillage - Mary Anne Mercer - Bog

A moving memoir of a young nurse's experience trekking with a local health team in rural Nepal, Beyond the Next Village chronicles how, after arriving in the roadless district of Gorkha in 1978, Mary Anne Mercer experiences firsthand the interlacing of modern medicine with an ancient culture-and her life is gradually transformed by immersion in the daily lives of villagers and her team.
