Dr Arthur Andrews, a worthy citizen of Albury, contributed greatly to the growth and development of his adopted town. He was not only exceptionally public-spirited, but also a pioneer local historian and a leader in the early study of Australasian tokens and coins. His personal story has been overlooked-and so also Albury's history, as the city's promise around the time of Federation is perhaps only now being fulfilled. However, Dr Andrew's histories of Albury and the Upper Murray, and his handbook of tokens and coins, are still used. The Country Surgeon is an extensive, well-illustrated biography. It illuminates the lives and everyday preoccupations of Dr Andrew's fellow citizens in the late 19th and early 20th centuries.
