Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Reminiscences of Student Life and Practice
To a man of the Doctor's active habits the leisure thus enforced upon him was very wearisome, until it happily occurred to him that he might relieve the tedium of it by the writing of sketches, embracing recollections and incidents of his professional career. Owing to the nature of his illness this relaxation could only be obtained during the more or less rare intervals when he was free from severe suffering. But few as were those intervals they helped to divert his mind and relieve his weariness. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
