An incurable disease. A whole new life. Jack Smithwhyte, a bacteriologist, loses everything when his work makes him the victim of an incurable tropical disease. Adapting to a new lifestyle, he and his family move to Ireland and struggle with mixed feelings as they become self-sufficient, keeping various kinds of domestic animals, growing fruit and vegetables, and learning to love the country life.Twenty-two years later, the children have grown and left, and Jack and his wife move to Spain, hoping Jack's poor health will benefit from the kinder climate. But new challenges and adventures await them, as they adapt to a fascinating new way of life. Sojourns in Ireland and Spain is an entertaining tale of two cultures, told with sympathy and wit. Less
