He Also Built Up The Largest Surgical Practice In The North Of England By His Skill And Energy. Following Rutherford Morison, Whom He Always Revered As A Master, He Made His Own Notable Contribution To The Great Tradition Of Newcastle Surgery, Which Has Developed Independently Of Both London And Edinburgh. He Carried In His Head An Encyclopaedic Knowledge Of Modern Surgery, Knew Its Makers Personally And Surrounded Himself With Their Photographs And Writings From All Over The World. He Had The Courage To Give Up His Great Position At Newcastle, And To Become The First Director Of Surgery At The New British Postgraduate Medical School At Hammersmith In 1934. This Post, Which Carried A Professorship In The University Of London, Provided Him With Increased Scope As A Teacher And Operator; Without So Many Extraneous Pre-Occupations. He Held The Position, With Growing Usefulness And Distinction, Till The End Of The Second World War In 1945. His Work Attracted Young Men From All Over The World To Attend His Teaching. His Clinic Earned The Unique Distinction Of Being Twice Described In The British Journal Of Surgery: "Professor Grey Turner At The Postgraduate Medical School", 1937, 24, 595-600, And 1947, 34, 366-373, With Portraits And Select Bibliography.

Margaret Mee (1909-88) traveled to the Amazon area 15 times over a 32 year period, by canoe, on foot and often alone. Her paintings and sketches "could stand without shame in the high company of such masters as Georg Dionysius Ehret and Redoute" (Wilfred Blunt). Mee was a passionate conservationist and devoted her life to recording the diversity and beauty of the Amazon. She was one of the first to protest the destruction still taking place there. Sitwell in Great Flower Books describes her work as: 'exceptional and quite in the tradition of the great eighteenth-century books '. 'Mee's work is of an unusually high order of excellence and in the best tradition of flower painting' [Taylor, director of Royal Botanic Garden of Kew]. 'Mee was a talented botanical painter and intrepid traveller. . .an exceptional personality' [Oak Spring Flora]. One of the plants illustrated was discovered by Mee herself.
