Name in ink on fep not of author. New Introduction by Lloyd G. Stevenson M.D. a preeminent medical historian. Charles Caldwell May 14 1772 - July 9 1853 Louisville Kentucky was a noted 19th-century U.S. physician who is best known for starting what would become the University of Louisville School of Medicine. Charles Caldwell was born on May 14 1772. Caldwell earned an M.D. from the University of Pennsylvania School of Medicine in 1796 while studying under Benjamin Rush. Caldwell practiced medicine in Philadelphia and was a lecturer at his alma mater the University of Pennsylvania. He also edited the "Port Folio" one of the day's primary medical magazines and published over 200 medical publications. A significant number of copies of Caldwell's 18th and 19th century publications including copies of the Port folio survive in the collections of the AAS. In 1819 Caldwell left Philadelphia to join the fledgling medical school at Lexington Kentucky's Transylvania University where he quickly turned the school into the region's strongest. In 1821 he convinced the Kentucky General Assembly to purchase $10000 worth of science and medical books from France many of which are still held at the university. The school dismissed him in 1837 and he then traveled with several colleagues to Louisville where they created the Louisville Medical Institute. He made the new school an instant success with its rapid growth into one of the region's best medical schools. However he was forced out in 1849 due to a personal rivalry with Lunsford Yandell. The Autobiography of Dr. Caldwell was composed during the last seven or eight years of his life. It was also revised corrected and prepared for the press by Harriot W. Warner. The book contains an introduction information about his family his experiences in Medical school the yellow fever epidemic in Philadelphia the Whiskey campaign in Western Pennsylvania the military campaign with Washington and Hamilton and the War of 1812. Dr. Caldwell also included a catalogue of his 215 published medical writings and translations published between 1795 and 1851. Da Capo Press hardcover
