Description
"An entertaining and informative read" Dame Joanna Lumley
Roger Windsor's career as a veterinarian and conservationist has taken him on a thrilling journey across the globe. In A Vet for All Seasons, the final volume of his memoirs, he takes readers on a captivating ride through his adventurous life. From his time at the Veterinary Diagnostic Laboratory in Dumfries, Scotland, where he worked during the Foot and Mouth epidemic of 2000 and conducted a whale autopsy, to his consultancies on five continents, from Afghanistan to Zambia, Roger's tales are both entertaining and informative.
But Roger's passions don't stop at veterinary medicine. He is also an art lover who ran a gallery in Dumfries while juggling his international work. He was also instrumental in saving Moat Brae House, the birthplace of Peter Pan, for the nation, by setting up the Moat Brae Trust.
In The Veterinary Detectives, Roger shares some of his most memorable moments, including performing surgery on monkeys, advising on the conservation of orangutans in Borneo and Asian lions in Gujarat, and even treating a Liger for tonsillitis. This book is a must-read for anyone interested in animal health, conservation, and adventure.
