Jungle Doctor's Case Book

By Paul White

A colonial idealization of African life written especially to impress young minds.

FROM THE COVER: “As in former volumes in the series. not the least part of the attraction of this book is the contribution made to its pages by the Africans themselves. The reactions of the Wagogo people of the Central Plains of Tanganyika, with their strong sense of humour and their flair for seeing parables in the everyday happenings of life, provide a fascination of their own. In addition to new acquaintances, we find here our old friends Daudi, the Head Dispenser, Sechelela, Perisi and Mwendwa, the nurses, Kefa, Sila and Samson, the dressers, and last, but by no means least, James, who always insists on calling himself "Ward Sister.”
