Book Description Cloth. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good. 1st Uk Edition. Hardback. Slight foxing to edge. Foreword by James Herriot. 'This is not simply a recital of a dctor's cases, vivid and exciting though they are' it is a warem, funny, touching book. Episodic in charcter and filled with lovely punch lines, it dips into the lives of shepherds, soldiers, hardy fishermen and countless ordinary people'. So writes James Herriot in his foreword to this account of a doctor's early years in medicine. This book is a delightful, human book, a mixture of pathos and humour, of hardship and tragedy. The Gibson's patients were young mothers and tradesmen, farmers and labourers, most of them poor and all of them characters whose problems and troubles live again in these pages, creating a constantly shifting kaleidoscope of life amid the stress of war and its aftermath. Contemporary photographs illustrate the scenes and the people of those bygone years. Illustrated. 218 pp. (We carry a wide selection of titles in The Arts, Theology, History, Politics, Social and Physical Sciences. academic and scholarly books and Modern First Editions etc.).
