A BOOK ABOUT DOCTORS. By J. C. JEAFFRESON, Author of “Novels and Novelists,” &c. 2 vols., with Plates, 21s.
“A pleasant book for the fireside season on which we are entering, and for the seaside season that is to come. Since Mr. Wadd’s details of his own experiences in the first of his popular works, there has not been so agreeable a book about doctors published as the one before us. Mr. Wadd, it will be remembered, chatted chiefly of his own experiences. Mr. Jeaffreson takes a far wider range. He has been into the medical garden, and gathered two armsful of herbs, and plants, and flowers, and everything connected therewith, and these he has classified and arranged; and out of hundreds of volumes, collected thousands of good things, adding much that appears in print for the first time, and which of course gives increased value to this very readable book.”—Athenæum.

“An interesting, pleasant, and instructive book, abundant in anecdote, and agreeably gossipping. It evinces considerable research, and a generally sound historical judgment.”—Spectator.
