Doctor In The Mountains - W A Anderson

This book is the case-history of a dedicated man of medicine, whose practice has been in the rugged and enormous 'parish' of the Lake Wakaktipu district.

"Doctor Bill", as he is fondly known to his friends and patients, was destined for a farming life; but an accident put him into hospital, immobile over a long period. This experience dedicated him to a life of helping and healing others.

In this book you will find stories of midnight emergencies, nightmare journeys, civic comedies, eccentric patients - all related with warm sympathy and the skill of a modest but gifted raconteur. You will also find an engaging picture of the township and people of Queenstown, 'capital' of the Lake Wakatipu region in the high mountains of the South Island of New Zealand.
