THEY GAVE ME A CROWN, The Diversions of a Doctor in War and Peace, I G Briggs
2664 Herbert Jenkins Ltd, London - first printing n.d (1944) hardcover, 5¾" x 8½" 220 pages An English doctor's jaunty account of his life as a medico - packed with incident and anecdote, told in an easy style that is both readily readable and thoroughly convincing. His tales as an Army doctor are highly amusing and oftimes moving; on his return to civvy street he continues to attrract the wacky, nuttier cases (and offers them even wackier and nuttier advice of a non-medical nature!). Ours is a tired copy without jacket; sun-fading to spine & small stains to front. Book in GOOD / FAIR condition. $75.00AUD Click here to order or message the dealer
