Hardcover. Condition: Near Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Near Fine. Jacket by Harry Tennant (illustrator). 1st Edition. First edition, subsequent impression with number line '3 5 7 9 10 8 6 4 2'. SIGNED BY THE AUTHOR, IN BLACK BIRO, WITHOUT DEDICATION, ON TITLE PAGE.

They say that being a good doctor boils down to just four things: Shut up, listen, know something, care. The same could be said for life on the road too. When Stephen Fabes left his job as a junior doctor and set out to cycle around the world, frontline medicine quickly faded from his mind. Of more pressing concern were the daily challenges of life as an unfit rider on an overloaded bike, helplessly in thrall to pastries. But leaving medicine behind is not as easy as it seems. As he roves continents, he finds people whose health has suffered through exile, stigma or circumstance, and others, whose lives have been saved through kindness and community. After encountering a frozen body of a monk in the Himalayas, he is drawn ever more to healthcare at the margins of the world, to crumbling sanitoriums and refugee camps, to city dumps and war torn hospital wards. And as he learns the value of listening to lives, not just solving diagnostic puzzles, Stephen challenges us to see care for the sick as a duty born of our humanity, and our compassion. Very scarce signed. Signed by Author(s).

Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Good. 1st Edition. First edition, third impression. Hardback in dustwrapper. 21.5 × 14.5cm, xxvi + 126pp. This copy has been signed by Stephen Tennant from Wilsford Manor in his typically florid style. The inscription reads "for Martin Breese from Stephen Tennant, March 1964. 'nous n'egalons pas nes pensees' Bousset. Wilsford Manor, Salisbury", with him adding "Know thyself" to the top of the page. First published in 1949, this is a a collection of essays and letters. Willa Cather writes about her own fiction and that of Sarah Orne Jewett, Stephen Crane, and Katherine Mansfield, among others. She concludes, "Art is a concrete and personal and rather childish thing after all - no matter what people do to graft it into science and make it sociological and psychological; it is no good at all unless it is let alone to be itself - a game of make-believe, of re-production, very exciting and delightful to people who have an ear for it or an eye for it." Condition: The book itself is in very good condition, there's a little age-toning to the pages but they remain clean and the binding is secure. The dustwrapper has a small hole to the spine and some light loss to the corners and spine ends but it has not been price-clipped and is now within a protective sleeve. Signed by Author(s).
