Book Description

Excerpt from The Principal Health-Resorts of Europe and Africa: For the Treatment of Chronic Diseases For the favourable reception accorded to my former works on medical blimatology and mineral waters I was ehiefiy indebted, next to the indulgence of my reviewers, to the cir cumstances Which had caused me to Visit or reside in the various health-resorts I described. The accuracy of my account of these places has been since attested by the freedom With which they have been appropriated by some recent authors I therefore venture to hope that the following pages, which have been so thoroughly re-written and revised, as to form a substantially new work, may be found useful to the travelling invalid, as well as to his medical adviser, as a comprehensive and trustworthy hand-book of the foreign Health-resorts and Spas.
