A respected camel veterinarian in British India kept a definitive textbook on clinic shelves for decades - while its author, Arnold Spencer Leese, was simultaneously building fascist networks in England; how did the veterinary credibility shield his politics?

The camel treatise that lent a fascist his credibility

In this episode, we follow a single veterinary textbook and the two lives of its author as they run in parallel: the meticulous fieldwork on camel disease and the deliberate organizing of fascist groups at home. What happens when professional trust becomes the vehicle for political influence?
