Peter Jerram

I'm a retired practising veterinarian who has co-authored three previous books, one on training working dogs (I Am A Working Dog 2004), and two on veterinary life (Cock and Bull Stories 2011 and Old Dogs New Tricks 2016).

 Currently finishing a book on the Wahine disaster in 1968, which I survived as a passenger. The book will include a detailed analysis of the causes of the disaster, which should proke discussion.

I live in semi-rural Marlborough, golf, fish and spend time in the Nelson Lakes whenever possible.
