Yonge 1646/47-1721 was apprenticed to a naval surgeon at the age of 12 and was serving as a ship's surgeon for the Newfoundland fishing fleet by age 18. He retired from sea duties which had included being aboard a naval ship in wartime and set up practice in Plymouth at age 25 working as surgeon to the naval hospital there. He was appointed deputy surgeon-general of the navy in 1674. Yonge kept journals recording his cases and began publishing reports of significant and successful treatments and innovations. According to the Dictionary of Canadian Biography "His introduction into surgery of the 'flap technique' in amputating a limb is recorded in his book 'Currus triumphalis e terebinthe' 1679." It was while practicing in Plymouth in 1679 that he was called to treat a four-year-old boy who had suffered a compound fracture of the skull when a heavy gate fell on him. Yonge proceeded to remove splinters of the skull and performed several operations to lift the caved-in portions applying clysters and plasters for which he gives recipes to protect and heal the wound along with "juleps" given orally. All are reported in sufficient detail to allow another practitioner to follow the treatment protocol. The child recovered defying the widely held belief that such wounds meant certain death. This is a very scarce publication: ABPC and RBH record just three other copies at auction since 1970. Printed by J. M. for Henry Faithorn and John Kersey unknown
