A Fortunate Man

The Story of a Country Doctor

by John Berger & Jean Mohr

In 1966 John Berger and the photographer Jean Mohr followed a GP through his surgeries and house calls in the Forest of Dean. First published in 1967, their portrait of the doctor and the community he served remains one of the most widely read books about medicine and care. This Canons edition has an introduction by the GP and writer Gavin Francis.
