FAMOUS BRITISH AUTHORS
A.J. CRONIN
Archibald Joseph Cronin (19 July 1896  6 January 1981) was a Scottish
novelist and physician.
His best-known novel is The Citadel (1937), the story of a doctor from a
Welsh mining village who quickly moves up the career ladder in London. Cronin
had observed this scene closely as a Medical Inspector of Mines and later as a
doctor in Harley Street. The book promoted what were then controversial new
ideas about medical ethics and helped to inspire the launch of the National
Health Service. Another popular mining novel of Cronin's, set in the North East
of England, is The Stars Look Down. Both these novels have been adapted as
films, as have Hatter's Castle, The Keys of the Kingdom and The Green Years.
Cronin's novel Country Doctor was adapted as a long-running BBC radio and
TV series Dr. Finlay's Casebook, revived many years later.
