The Wild and the Wonderful

From his childhood holidays on a family farm in the Lowveld, to his work in both public and private practice in Southern Africa and the United Kingdom, a retired veterinarian retraces his steps through a world where the lives of humans and animals intersect.

Infused with unusual wit and candour, and with a full-spectrum cast of highly relatable and unique characters, this recollection of experiences, impressions and insights is a tale of extraordinary endeavour.

Come rain or shine, this book captures the heart of the people and the places – rural and urban, wealthy and poor – encountered in a life of service.

All of it happens to this vet.

“A Highly enlightening and entertaining read.”
