Excerpt from A Treatise on the History, Etiology and Prophylaxis of Trismus Nascentium It is scarcely expected that in this age of book-making, an author should stop to apologize for publishing his work, yet it may not be amiss to make a few statements in regard to the one now about to be offered to the professional public. This monograph was first published in a series of numbers in the Nashville Journal of Medicine and Surgery. It was then well received by the profession, and favorably reviewed. Shortly after appearing in the aforesaid Journal, it was published a second time, in a pamphlet form. The work in its present, or third edition, will be greatly enlarged, and will contain two costly original plates, and consist of about eighty pages neatly and substantially bound in one volume. The author has just cause to hope that it will again meet with a kind reception by the profession, especially as he is not aware that any regular monograph has ever been published on the fatal malady of which this treats, a reason which he may offer as a further apology for the present one. Trismus Nascentium, or Lock-Jaw of Infants, is no uncommon disease, but one which is constantly occurring in our midst. No condition or habits of life, peculiarity of climate or race, give immunities from its attacks. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
