Bilbury Grange is the second in Vernon Coleman's series of Bilbury books. The place is the English county of Devon. The time is the 1970s. A young doctor, just married and in a new home (a vast and rambling country house in desperate need of repairs and renovation), has taken over a small village practice when suddenly the authorities decide that the village isn't big enough to have its own doctor. The villagers decide otherwise. Bilbury is the village everyone dreams of living in. It's the village where people speak to strangers and where doors are left unlocked. Bilbury Grange is the story of village life in the 1970s and it centres on the young doctor and his lovely wife. But its also about the people who live there and it is a story of great happiness and joy, some tragedy and many dramas.
`For sheer relaxing pleasure here's another witty tale from the doctor whose prolific writings are so well known.' BBC Bookshelf
`A wonderful book for relaxing and unwinding. Makes you want to up roots and move to the rural heartland.' Lincolnshire Echo
`A cornucopia of colourful characters help to weave a rich tapestry of village life subtly tempered with gentle humour...the mixture of rural beauty, human nature and the odd whisper of nostalgia combine to make this book a real delight.' Western Gazette
`The tales he tells are truly uplifting and thought provoking. They are a breath of fresh air in a troubled world and are also very amusing.' Peoples Friend
`I have just finished reading Bilbury Grange. I found the book to be brilliant. I felt as though I was part of the community.' Mr C, Cleethorpes

The Young Country Doctor Book 2 Bilbury Grange eBook Vernon Coleman
After falling in love with Bilbury Grange, The Young Country Doctor Book 1, I was a little wary the second and subsequent books will be less enthralling, shallow follow-up of a first successful story- as it happens so often in series. I needn't have worried, I read book 2 twice as fast and couldn't wait to order all available books in the series (which were not available yet on Kindle at the time I bought #1).And because i agree with Vernon Coleman on many of his activists views (warning us about the danger of medical practice, pharmaceutical empires, animal cruelty, etc.) I have also decided to buy 12 more medical books from him. After all, health is the only real wealth we really own, isn't it?
Sorry, can't stay too long, must start on Book #3 tonight. A good book is like a best friend, so rare indeed...

The Young Country Doctor Book 2 Bilbury Grange eBook Vernon Coleman Reviews
I do enjoy reading Vernon Coleman's work. So far, I have found it all tasteful and well written. Editing is great, and I have had no problems trying to figure out what the author intended to say. Steamy situations and coarse language are nonexistent. I will be looking for more from this author.
My second enjoyable read from Mr. Vernon Coleman. I have fallen in love with Bilbury Grange and could imagine myself in the garden there petting the cats and picking strawberries.
A charming and light read. I would like to live in Bilbury. I think I could probably live in Doctor Brownlow's mansion for a long time without being discovered.
I think the first book was more interesting and had more happening. Maybe it's just me, but I think these books seem awfully short. That maybe at one time this series was either one very long book or a couple of moderately long books.
This is a good book to read when you need something quick and cheerful to read.
I really can't get enough of the books written by this author. Each book is a discovery, each one a treasure chest. I would highly recommend these books. I wish I knew these people in real life, they would be awesome friends!
Slightly different premise than the first book but enjoyable enough until the cricket match. I suppose if one is a cricket fan it would be enjoyed but, for me, the relaying of every step and play of the match, start to finish, was much too much. None too sure of continuing the series. Shame.
The first book in Dr. Vernon Coleman's Bilbury Series was so beautifully written that I eagerly read book 2 Bilbury Grange, which continues the story of a young country doctor and his new wife,Patsy, with a colourful supporting cast of both village and city characters, and richly-described situations that make page-turning reading and create mental pictures putting the reader smack-dab in the middle of a 1970s sea-side village in England. Now, onward to book 3!
Many authors attempt to capture the folksy, humorous style of James HERRIOT but few succeed. Vernon Coleman has a similar but unique style of his own. He manages to find and convey just how special the everyday moments of life can be-- from watching a pair of wild birds raise their new family in our barn/garage to having tea with an old friend. The simple pleasures of life are shared with a newlywed couple who buy a derelict home and restore it into a home. The community faces the threat of redevelopment and the possible loss of their intimate community by joining forces and making difficult decisions that may not be monetarily rewarding but which are spiritually rewarding. As soon as I
