T. H. Barton Autobiography of Dr. Thomas H Barton, the Self-Made Physician of Syracuse, Ohio

Annotation

Whilst the greatest effort has been made to ensure the quality of this text, due to the historical nature of this content, in some rare cases there may be minor issues with legibility. I am aware that the public is well supplied with the biographies and autobiographies of our distinguished men, of the generals who have led our armies to victory, of the statesmen who have shaped the policy of the government, of eminent divines, poets, moralists, historians, philosophers, lawyers, legislators, even of criminals, who have spent their lives in solitary confinement, or perished on the scaffold. But the common or ordinary men, those who have failed to reach the summit of fame have not come to the front and given their experience in the battle of life. Such is the design of the author. It will be mv object in the present work to portray, in plain and. Concise language, the struggles of a lifetime.
