Opis

This is a true biography of a village lad who grew up to be a doctor and joined the Indian Medical Corps in 1942 and served in the Burma sector during the Second World War. Later in 1947, he gave up a lucrative career in the army to serve his people in a remote village that lacked any medical facility in those times. He served the poor people of the area for sixty years, charging a very nominal fee for his services. This book describes his experiences during the Second World War and later as a rural doctor providing primary care to about one hundred adjoining villages. He was the Dr. Albert Schweitzer of India.
