300 A HISTORY OF NATIONAL TUBERCULOSIS ASSOCIATION 



section of the Army Medical Corps was, of course, not confined to 

 inaugurating effective diagnostic work. It was under his direction 

 that ample provision was made in eight newly erected govern- 

 ment hospitals for those in our army who had contracted or 

 developed tuberculosis during service here or abroad. 



Below will be found the valuable bibliography of Colonel Bush- 

 nell's literary activity on behalf of the prevention and cure of 

 tuberculosis in the army. Colonel Bushnell has now retired, 

 enjoying a well-deserved rest. He can amply afford to do this with 

 the consciousness of having done his duty and having given not 

 only the best of his years, but even the years of later life, which 

 he had a right to enjoy in peace and quiet, to the service of his 

 country. 



The Colonel, however, does not seem to believe that retirement 

 from active service should be followed by complete inactivity, and 

 so he surprised and delighted his friends and admirers recently 

 by the publication of a remarkable book, entitled "A Study of the 

 Epidemiology of Tuberculosis; With Especial Reference to Tu- 

 berculosis of the Tropics and of the Negro Race." This should 

 be considered one of the most authoritative books that have ap- 

 peared on the subject, showing, as it does, the wide reading of the 

 author and his vast experience as an army surgeon in various parts 

 of the country and under diverse climatic conditions.
