Title: Frontline Surgeon – New Zealand Medical Pioneer Douglas Jolly
Author: DERBY MARK

Central Otago-born Doug Jolly was one of the greatest war surgeons of the
twentieth century. Tireless, dedicated and courageous, he was one of the most
gifted Republican Army surgeons in the Spanish Civil War and his surgical manual
based on his battlefield experiences close to the frontline was widely used in later
wars.
Frontline Surgeon traces Jolly’s remarkable career from medical training in 1920s
New Zealand to medical director of Britain’s largest hospital for amputees, and
restores him to the ranks of pioneers of modern medicine.
