Excerpt from Dr. John Fothergill and His Friends: Chapters in Eighteenth Century LifeThe names of many other friends of Fothergill, who receive a shorter notice, will be found in the Index.Dr. Fothergill was a man of wide interests. In order to render the picture of his life and in¿uence as complete as possible, the author has combined a notice of his medical activities with his other pursuits, notwithstanding that the former may seem to be too technical for inclusion in so general a work. Portions of the chapters on his medical work have already been read before the Royal Society of Medicine and the Hunterian Society, or have been included in papers published in the Practitioner and the Lancet.The sources of information are stated In footnotes, especially at the end of a chapter. The bibliography and the manuscript sources are more fully dealt with in the Appendix, where also will be found the text of the Conciliation Proposals for preventing the American War, I 7 74 - 1 7 7 7, now printed from the original documents.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
