Excerpt from A Manual for the Practice of Surgery I am well aware that I have failed to realize in the execution of my task the ideal standard I at starting proposed to myself, and I knew, when I first under took to write the book, how difficult it was to compress the treatment of the vast range of subjects included. Under the title of Surgery into one volume, but my object was to Offer such an epitome of the main principles and methods Of practice as should be serviceable to the student and practitioner; and from the reception the first edition of this work, published in November, 1872, has met with in Great Britain and America, I feel justified in saying that I have not failed in the attempt, and that the book Supplied a want felt by the professional public. To the many reviewers who have acknowledged my labors so fairly and so fully my thanks are clearly due, but still more to the profession, which has wel comed my humble services so kindly. Fully alive, therefore, to the generous appreciation of my past work, and assur ing my readers that no pains have been spared to bring the present up to as high a standard as my time and Opportunities have allowed, I submit it in all confidence to the kind consideration of mv professional brethren as no unworthy exposition of modern British surgery.
