Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Autobiography and Services of Sir James McGrigor, Late Director-General of the Army Medical Department: With an Appendix of Notes and Original Correspondence
Though the merits and public services of men, who depart from among us in the quietude of retirement, at the close of a long life of usefulness, are more readily lost sight of than the merits of those who are suddenly snatched away in the midst of a brilliant career; yet not unfrequently the reminiscence of their names and works, is as much an act of justice to the individuals, as that of those who departed in the vigour of life, and in the freshness of their fame.
