The above work, recently issued, is a translation from the French of SANNE'S great 

 work on " Diphtheria," by H. Z. GILL, late Professor of Surgery in Cleveland, Ohio. 



SANNE'S work is quoted, directly or indirectly, by every writer since its publication, 

 as the highest authority, statistically, theoretically, and practically. The translator, 

 having given special study to the subject for many years, has added over fifty pages, in- 

 cluding the Surgical Anatomy, Intubation, and the recent progress in the branches 

 treated down to the present date; making it, beyond question, the most complete work 

 extant on the subject of Diphtheria in the English language. 



Facing the title-page is found a very fine Colored Lithograph Plate of the parts con- 

 cerned in Tracheotomy. Next follows an illustration of a cast of the entire Trachea, and 

 bronchi to the third or fourth division, in one piece, taken from a photograph of a case 

 in which the cast was expelled during life from a patient sixteen years old. This is the 

 most complete cast of any one recorded. 



Over fifty other illustrations of the surgical anatomy of instruments, etc., add to the 

 practical value of the work. 



Diphtheria having become such a prevalent, wide-spread, and fatal disease, no 

 general practitioner can afford to be without this work. It will aid in preventive meas- 

 ures, stimulate promptness in the application of, and efficiency in, treatment, and 

 moderate the extravagant views which have been entertained regarding certain specifics 

 in the disease Diphtheria. 



A full Index accompanies the enlarged volume, also a List of Authors, making 

 altogether a very handsome illustrated volume of over 680 pages. 



In this book we have a complete review and j 

 compendium of all worth preserving that has hitherto 

 been said or written concerning diphtheria and the 

 kindred subjects treated of by our author, collated, 

 arranged, and commented on by both author and 

 translator. The subject of intubation, so recently 

 revived in this country, receives a very careful and 

 impartial discussion at the hands of the translator, 

 and a most valuable chapter on the prophylaxis of 

 diphtheria and croup closes the volume.

The author, Mrs. Mary O. Stanton, has given over twenty years to the preparation of this work. Her 

 style is easy, and, by her happy method of illustration of every point, the book reads like a novel, and 

 memorizes itself. To physicians the diagnostic information conveyed is invaluable. To the general 

 reader each page opens a new train of ideas. (This book has no reference whatever to Phrenology.)
