Synopsis

Based on The Ship Captain’s Medical Guide – a 356-page medical reference publication held by all British Merchant Navy ships, UK Hospitals (and UK GP’s involved in providing relevant medical advice via ship’s radio) – this humourous book is, nevertheless, not intended to be irreverent in any way.It introduces the ‘STEW' character – a mythical B.O.T. style Chief Steward of the pre-woke 1970s who used his own copy to secretly poke fun at the content of this important on-board Guide. With over 30 cartoons covering most of the main emergency medical treatments necessary for an unofficial ‘Ship’s Doctor’, this amusing adaption provides much good-natured hilarity.The reader is, nevertheless, constantly reminded throughout that it is still, in reality, a hugely instructive and vitally important publication – and will always be so.
