About this Item

Our good condition books are generally good for reading but not for gifting or collecting. They could have imperfections such as creasing, fanning, inscriptions, margin notes, yellowing, staining on edge or cover or pages, bumps, scuffs, etc etc (sometimes multiple of these). It's a wide category that encompasses anything that isn't almost-new down to anything that is slightly better than poor. We would NOT recommend gifting Good books - these should be considered reading copies. Our books are dispatched from a Yorkshire former cotton mill. We list via barcode/ISBN so please note that the images are stock images and may not be the exact copy you receive, furthermore the details about edition and year might not be accurate as many publishers reuse the same ISBN for multiple editions and as we simply scan a barcode or enter an ISBN we do not check the validity of the edition data when listing. If you're looking for an exact edition please don't order (at least not without checking with us first, although we don't always have time to check). We aim to dispatch prompty, the service used will depend on order value and book size. We can ship to most countries, see our shipping policies. Payment is via Abe only.

About this title

Synopsis

Bestselling author and TV vet David Grant won a legion of new fans with the warm and funny account of his first years as a vet in Just Practising. In this book he relives more of the highs and lows of the green young country vet with a fair bit still to learn... In an impulsive move, David decides to leave the Kent countryside when he starts the now famous RSPCA Harmsworth hospital in London--a far cry from his country home. David battles through the urban jungle and shares with us the blossoming of what will become his two major passions: working with small animals, and the RSPCA. However, the switch from farm animals to pets is not the soft option David had assumed.
