Uniform browning to first two-thirds of book and a few pages with darker transparent brown stains; a good to very good copy.

Rutkow GS13: "Incorporating seventy-five detailed case reports, this volume provides an excellent account of early nineteenth-century treatment of strangulated hernia and bladder and prostate problems. Parrish dedicated the book to Philip Syng Physick (1768-1837), whom he succeeded in 1816 as surgeon to the Pennsylvania Hospital." Kelly & Burrage, pp.941-942. Wellcome IV.309. Blocker Coll., p.303.
