Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Illustrations of Some of the Injuries: To Which the Lower Limbs Are Exposed
Neither fimple fraetures, nor diflocations of the hip joint, are mortal accidents; they mu?, in order to deftroy life, be combined with additional mifchiefs. Such combinations having fallen in my way, the following publication will thew how far my ind-ufiry availed itfelf of my fituation. I will hope indeed, that I have not thrown away my time and labour, but that what I have done may conduce to the prevention of errors, which never fail to bring upon the patients torment, and perpetual lamenefs and upon the furgeons reproach if not remorfe.
