Frederick Franck - Series by Royal Fireworks Press

“The best book yet on Albert Schweitzer in Africa.” — New York Times

Dr. Franck set up the dental clinic for Dr. Schweitzer at Lambaréne and worked closely with the good doctor at various periods for several years. An accomplished artist, the book is full of Franck’s drawings as well as his delightful text. The book tells what it was like to work with Schweitzer at his hospital.

The story of a young African boy who is brought to Schweitzer’s clinic for an infection in his foot. There, he comes to admire the doctor and wishes to become a doctor himself. But before he can do so, there is much that he has to learn and unlearn. He finds a place and a set of duties at the hospital only to be sent away by Dr. Schweitzer when his foot has healed. He later returns as a doctor.

Delightfully illustrated by Dr. Franck.

This fully illustrated book shows how Franck translated his black and white drawings of the Christian Stations of the Cross and the ancient Zen Oxherding Parable, into stained glass panels. After exhibitions in the 1990s, they remain in the Pacem in Terris garden in Warwick, NY.
