About this book

Households without a doctor nearby were the intended audience of this handbook by Joseph B. Lawrence, a medical and surgical nurse. Each entry describes the symptoms of a problem and what to do at once, in language meant for any person of ordinary intelligence.

The contents cover broken bones, dislocations, burns and scalds, drowning, frost bites, snake bites, insect stings, sunstroke, choking, and objects lodged in the ear, nose or throat. A section lists the principal poisons with their antidotes. Its advice dates from 1888 and reflects medical practice of that time.
