About This Item
"The merits of this work as a handy and convenient manual for reference in the field and hospital, have induced the publishers to add to it a chapter (the Ninth) on Gunshot Wounds, and such other subjects peculiar to Military Surgery as seemed requisite to adapt it more thoroughly to the wants of Army Surgeons. Owing to the absence of the Author in Europe, this has been prepared by Dr. W. F. Atlee. Philadelphia, March, 1862" (Preface to the New Edition). Originally published in 1848 and updated due to the Civil War in 1862. Apropos of nothing, F. Sargent was the father of noted artist John Singer Sargent. Light to moderate shelf/edge wear, minor discrete moisture staining to boards, ownership signatures at ffep (two), hint of foxing (focused at preliminaries), else tight, bright, and unmarred. Full brown leather binding, black leather spine labels, gilt lettering and decorative elements. Small 8vo. 383pp. Illus. (b/w plates. Index. Adverts.
