Howard A. Kelly's just ready 



Cyclopedia of American Biography 



In these two Tolnmea is given the biography of every medical ■worthy vfho has lived in the 



United States or Canada between 1610 and 1910 — every man and woman who has been dis- 



tiugnished either as an oiiginal thinker or writer, or as a teacher or great leader in medicine 



in any part of the country. Br. Kelly has also included a number of those hardy pioneers who 



did great work with insufSoient means and assistance in the border countries in the early days, 



those of the medical profession who after taking a degree have not practiced medicine but have 



become eminent in some other branch of science, and, lastly, those men who have done no 



special original work but who attained great local prominence and widely influenced their 



fellows by a strong personality. In all, some twelve hundred biographies are included. 



The introduction of some 80 pages will prove extremely interesting. In it is summed up all 



that has been accomplished by American medical men in every branch of medicine. In fact, 



these Besnm^ really form an admirable sketch of American medical history, bringing out in a 



most interesting way the many factors that played prominent roles in the development of 



, medicine in America. A number of portraits are distributed throughout each volume.
