Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Hints for Invalids About to Visit Naples: Being a Sketch of the Medical Topography of That City; Also an Account of the Mineral Waters of the Bay of Naples; With Analyses of the Most Important of Them, Derived From Authentic Sources
Naples and its beautiful Bay, have been so amply described in all the Works on Southern Italy, that any further account of them may seem to be super fluous. Its Medical Topography, however, has met with fewer historians; and there is still wanting some detailed account of the characteristics of its climate and soil, as adapted for the residence of invalids. Having resided some years in that city, and being thus probably, enabled to form a more correct judgment than those who have seen it only as occasional visitors, 1 shall devote the following pages to the purpose of exhibiting a history of its climate, and medical character, and of examining how far it is fitted for the Wifit'er's sojourn of an invalid.
