Still Practising

by David Grant

Bestselling author and TV vet David Grant won a legion of new fans with the warm and funny account of his first years as a vet in Just Practising. In this book he relives more of the highs and lows of the green young country vet with a fair bit still to learn... In an impulsive move, David decides to leave the Kent countryside when he starts the now famous RSPCA Harmsworth hospital in London--a far cry from his country home. David battles through the urban jungle and shares with us the blossoming of what will become his two major working with small animals, and the RSPCA. However, the switch from farm animals to pets is not the soft option David had assumed.

Very entertaining diary of a vet in the late sixties, early seventies. The vet stories are great, but it is stretched over the the sory of young man finding his way in life with a very small compass
