Book Description

Excerpt from American Observer Medical Monthly, Vol. 9 "I find by the Observer I can almost keep pace with my profession, without the other journals." "Better than ever." "It is gratifying to see the improvements that the Observer is making." "I should not like to do without it, as I get very many valuable ideas from its pages." "Being a so-called country practitioner, not enjoying the privilege of daily communion with my fellow hom opaths, I have learned to rely in a measure upon the Observer to supply the deficiency, and am more than satisfied with the result. I await its monthly appearance anxiously, and devour its well-filled and interesting pages with pleasure and profit." "I had thought to discontinue the Observer, owing to the multiplicity of papers on my table, but it has got to be one of the family, and I must have it." "It is a valuable paper, and your indefatigible industry and perseverance will doubtless assure you success in its publication." "I much prize its short and practical statements." "When I received the first number of Vol. I., I said to myself, 'this can be of no service to me, it has only a local interest, if any, to any one;' but some slight circumstances, an article I saw, and your promises, as set forth in the prospectus, determined the question, and now its title-page is like the face of an old friend." "I send you the amount of subscription. I thank you kindly for sending it so promptly. It is something I always expect just about the time it comes, and feel a little restless if much delayed. I love to read its pages. The articles are eminently practical, and I can extract something every month which I can apply with benefit to the variety of cases which I am called upon to treat." "I have been trying journals from other points and find that I much prefer the Observer." Improvements Contemplated We desire to make the ninth volume superior to the issues of any of any of the previous years, and will endeavor not to disappoint any reasonable expectations of our friends. To attain to this measure of superiority, we have secured the continuance of the present corps of editors and have also enlisted the services of other esteemed writers. We have also new type, experienced printers, better paper, and an improved cover, which will give the journal a better external appearance. The quality of the articles printed will doubtless be richer from month to month. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
