Damp stained. Foxed. Worn contemporary full leather binding. Early manuscript ownership of Dr. Jonathan H. Dorsey ( (Mill Creek Furnace, Huntingdon, PA). "In the early-19th century, thousands of Americans in the trans-Appalachian west turned away from harsh conventional treatments, especially bleeding and purging, and embraced milder, less debilitating therapeutic regimens. Samuel Thomson, a leading spokesman of this movement, said he learned botanic medicine from a female herbalist who cured his wife after a regular doctor had failed. In particular, Thomson believed that cold brought on illness and therefore restoring the body's natural heat offered the quickest remedy. This he accomplished with steam baths, cayenne pepper, and puking by means of Lobelia, a native American emetic." First Edition. **PRICE JUST REDUCED! MED 11
