Further Tales from a Country Practice

by Arthur Jackson

Arthur Jackson, country G.P., manufacturer of portable incubators and erstwhile breeder of wild fowl, is about to embark on a new project. Never one to resist a challenge - as he proved when he bought a dilapidated manor house he couldn't afford - he has just bought the fruit farm next door and committed himself to more money than he has ever possessed. As domestic chaos reigns, he still finds more than enough time to sort out the troubles - and troubled lives - of his patients. And a more varied set of symptoms would be hard to find.With warmth, wit and wisdom, Arthur Jackson reflects on the incidents that, even without the added mysteries of fruit farming, combine to make country life anything but peaceful - and everything but dull.
