Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from A Thousand Books for the Hospital Library: Selected From the Shelf-List of the Library of McLean Hospital, Waverley, Massachusetts
The editors Offer this list merely as a guide towards the selection of wholesome, readable literature for those who are ill either physically or mentally. While it has been compiled with the requirements of the latter class of patients in mind, it would seem no less suitable for the former, or, in fact, for any small library which desires only bright, wholesome, interesting books. It aims to suggest fresh titles for libraries already established, and not wholly to provide a buying list for the formation of new libraries.
