The novel which resulted in films and TV series. The story of a young doctor training in a London teaching hospital.
This is an amusing read, no belly laughs but light hearted and entertaining with enough serious information regarding medical practices in the 1940's to make it interesting. Its nothing like the British TV series that was very good but bears no resemblance to the novel.
The author, real name Gordon Ostlere is still alive and kicking aged 93. This is the first of a series that continued until the late 1980's.
