Excerpt from Observations on Some Important Points in the Practice of Military Surgery, and in the Arrangement and Police of Hospitals: Illustrated by Cases and Dissections
It was my original intention to have illustrated some of the following pages, with engravings from drawings of many valuable preparations collected by myself and my friends; but, after considerable progress had been made, I found that the expence would have seriously exceeded what I either wished or proposed, when I first announced my design of appearing before the public. Since that period also, a number of valuable cases have been sent to me, which have considerably augmented my materials. I therefore thought it much better, to supply the place of engravings, by letter-press description, than farther to enhance the price of a book, the object of which has been neither the acquisition of profit, nor the gratification of vanity.
