Excerpt from Observations on Climate, Diet, and Medical Treatment in France and England
The following pages are the result of an attentive observation of the climate and practice of France, during the past six years that I have been established in the southern part of that kingdom. I had not been long a resident in it, when the simplicity and success of the treatment adopted, as compared with what I had been accustomed to, struck me forcibly; and I found, that if the French carried their prejudices too far against the English faculty, the English, on the other hand, entertained still more erroneous ideas with regard to the French, notwithstanding the constant communications, both personal and literary, ever since the peace.
In the hope, therefore, of elucidating the subject a little, or at least of giving some more distinct notions respecting the peculiarities in the practice of the two countries, I have ventured to give publicity to these general observations.
