Excerpt from Handbook of Medical Treatment, Vol. 1 of 2
One of the pleasures of an old teacher is to see his pupils growing in usefulness and service to our profession and to the community. Among the Associate Editors of Da Costa's book are several of my old pupils, including in this pleasant company the highly esteemed editor himself, in whose careers I take a genuine personal interest and a pedagogic pride. Those whom I have not had the pleasure and honor of teaching I have known or known of, and greet them as fellow-authors striving to elevate and instruct the younger and less experienced members of the profession, and to serve our Country, and also to serve our common Humanity. It is of interest to note that nearly all of the Associate Editors are already in the Medical Corps of our Army, Navy, or Public Health Service. The few not so enrolled have reasons valid to their consciences or to their countrymen.
I have seen all the proofs of the first volume, and so far as a surgeon can judge, it bids fair to be of very great practical value. The second volume, I hope, will be its chief rival.
