Excerpt from A System of Midwifery: Including the Diseases of Pregnancy and the Puerperal State
Tee Author's object in this Work has been to furnish to Students and Practitioners a Complete System of the Midwifery of the present day. Its claim to a title so ambitious may be questioned.
Of English text-books, some of the very best have long been out of print some are out of date and others are mere Handbooks, in which the subject is, however ably, but cursorily treated. In our language, scarcely a modern work exists which can be compared with those of Cazeaux and Scanzoni. This is the Author's apology for an attempt in which, while he does not presume to emulate those authors, he ventures to hope that the fruit of some earnest labour, but too scant leisure, may not be held unworthy of consideration.
