Doctor In The Sticks

by D A Bathgate

Published 1973. Hardback with dustjacket in good condition. 

This is a great memoir from Dr Bathgate who spent some 50 years as a doctor. This book covers  mainly his early years working on the West Coast, Motueka and Ashburton as well as parts of the North Island. His story is interesting, engaging and never boastful - always a good approach for any kind of memoir. Includes some great old black and white images - including work on the Otira tunnel.
