Description
Excerpt from Modern Surgery, General and Operative<br/><br/>In completing a task which has occupied me for a weary time, I realize that the revision was made under extreme difficulties. Parts of it were written at Odd times and in strange places. The war was raging and all the forces of the world seemed devoted to slaughter. The routine of peace times was but a faded memory. Millions were dead and it seemed as though more millions were to die. Civilization trembled in the balance. Mercy, Christianity, Liberty, Law, Humanity were threatened with annihilation. In the words of Sir Thomas Browne, all of us were looking in the furious face of things. All of these elements conspired to settle upon me as a vast obsession, full of sorrow and Of heartbreak, paralyzing thought of other things. It was a dreadfully hard task under such circumstances to sit at a desk and try to revise a book. It was an utterly impossible thing to do it as it should be done.
